Scottish Water: Get your community ready for winter

We received this email today from Scottish Water.

Good afternoon,

I am writing regarding Scottish Water’s annual drive to encourage customers to heat, insulate and protect their homes this winter.

I have attached some materials for you and your community which can be shared to help provide advice on how to avoid burst pipes in the home and on what to do if a pipe does burst.

I have some physical copies of the leaflet along with stickers which can be used to remind customers of who their plumber is and how to contact them. If you would like me to send these through to you, please send me your address. Unfortunately, I do not have any hard copies of the posters.

The materials can be viewed or downloaded here …………………………………..
