Operating in one of the driest areas of the country and with less rain than many parts of the Middle East, we face a big challenge. Climate change is making that challenge even tougher and to maintain a secure water supply we are investing heavily in new resources and asking you to use water with great care. Working together we can ensure that our area has a sustainable water supply now and in the future.

Please remember that following a long period of below average rainfall a hosepipe and sprinkler ban is in force in the Folkestone and Dover area to conserve scarce water resources.
