People in East Neuk urged to use less water as demand rises

Scottish Water has called on people in the East Neuk to use less water, as it handles a rise in demand.

It is calling on all customers in the Neuk to help protect water supplies and use water more efficiently by: taking shorter showers; turning the tap off when brushing teeth; using washing machines and dishwashers only when fully loaded; and using a watering can instead of a hose.
