ON September 29, a problem occurred in the water mains supply to Tenbury and Burford. Though the supply was not disrupted Severn Trent had to declare the water undrinkable. A rare occurrence.
They turned out in droves from North and Mid Wales, Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire to name just a few locations.
Saturday and Sunday saw our town clerk and councillors working alongside these volunteers. Severn Trent set up two sites for distribution of bottled water, Tenbury Hospital and Palmers Meadow.
There was a tremendous sense of community spirit.
I will share some of her comments.
A sense of community spirit, coming together in a crisis and working together towards a positive outcome.
