Our phone lines are for emergencies - not for reporting hosepipe ban breaches! 

From the 11th July there are hosepipe restrictions in place across Yorkshire.

Any call made to the police about this could divert our call handlers away from dealing with real emergencies.

So, if you have any questions about the restrictions, or any concerns about a potential breach, we would please ask that you follow the latest advice from Yorkshire Water, or your water provider. 

Let's keep our colleagues free to take genuine calls from those really in need of help.

As always, if a crime is in progress or if there is an immediate risk to person or property, always dial 999.

If a crime is not in progress, then please consider reporting the incident online to us via our website in the first instance. Alternatively, you can call 101.
