Over the last few weeks, thousands of homes have been left without water, much of it caused by the dry weather.

But what makes this more annoying is when you spot water pouring down a road, a drain overflowing, or a leak that just isn’t being fixed.

Especially when you don’t know who to tell or know anything is actually being done about it.

That’s why I’ve launched Water Watch.

It’s a simple tool that helps you report water leaks, flooding and blocked drains directly to me.

All you have to do is find the problem on the map, tell me what’s happened, and Water Watch prepares an email for you to send straight to me.

That means I can see where problems are happening, identify the ones that aren’t being dealt with, and push the water companies to get them fixed.

So if there’s a leak, flood or blocked drain near you, don’t assume someone else has reported it.
