    OT No water.

    There is no water in Thurcroft, Laughton or Dinnington.
    The shops are selling out of bottled.
    If you know anyone in that area you can get free bottled water at the old church across from the snooker club.

    Older and disabled people will need looking after.

    Extends out to Ulley, Aughton, Aston Todwick etc too. 50,000 homes apparently.

    You're right, vulnerable people need support and to be prioritised. YW claim they will deliver water to those groups so they're not having to trek to shops etc.

    A friend of mine is in Dubai at the moment and in proper Yorkshire gallows humour.
    He?s posted on social media that he?d rather risk Iranian bombs in Dubai than people in Dinnington that can?t get a wash.
