Staff and patients at a major Greater Manchester hospital were left without running water for around five hours today.
The temporary water failure impacted some buildings across Salford Royal Hospital. The Manchester Evening News understands the outage lasted at least five hours from this morning, with a fix being found at around 1pm.
Salford Royal bosses have now confirmed that water is back up and running across the hospital. Their statement follows concerns from patients that they, and staff, would be unable to wash, clean their hands, or use the toilets.
