Southern Water offers compensation after five-day outage

Southern Water is to compensate businesses and community groups after thousands were left without water in East Sussex for five days.

The outage, which coincided with the May Day Bank Holiday weekend, affected 32,500 properties in Hastings and St Leonards.

At the time, East Sussex County Councillor Godfrey Daniel said it would have a “huge impact” at what was normally a busy time for hotels, pubs and restaurants, and as businesses struggled with the cost of living.

Southern Water’s director of water Tim McMahon said he hoped the £1m compensation fund would “make a positive difference”.
