- Water providers such as Thames Water and Yorkshire Water imposed hosepipe bans in multiple English regions starting in July 2025 due to sustained dry weather.
- The restrictions cover areas including Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, Oxfordshire, and parts of Yorkshire, with specific postcode zones affected.
- Exceptions allow watering with cans, irrigating food crops on allotments, and filling fish ponds despite the bans.
- Lifting the bans depends on significant rainfall replenishing reservoirs and reducing water demand to manageable levels.
We will keep the position under constant review. This really is just a temporary measure to help us in these very unusual circumstances.— South East Water, regarding the hosepipe ban due to unusual weather conditions.

Yorkshire Water says reservoir levels still falling despite hosepipe ban: Following the restrictions, domestic water usage across the region has dropped 10%
