Hosepipe bans set to continue into 2023 despite return of rain, water companies warn

Andrew Tucker, the water demand reduction manager at Thames Water, said there was no definite date for lifting the ban."We are still trying to recover from a really tough year that Mother Nature threw at us," Mr Tucker told the BBC."We’ve had a little bit in September and we can see the grass is now greening up. But an average September doesn't make up for 10 months of dry and record heat.

Thames Water joined several other firms - including Welsh Water, Southern Water, South East Water, South West Water and Yorkshire Water - by implementing hosepipe bans. A Thames Water spokesman said: "We want to thank our customers for helping us to save water since we introduced the temporary use ban last month.

"However, despite recent rain and our hosepipe ban, there’s still much less water in our rivers than usual.

Anybody actually paying attention to anything the water companies are saying?
