Water shortages will affect our business

Thames Water has announced that last year (2011) was one of the driest on record and therefore we are expecting widespread hosepipe bans. Their comment is “it’s now not a case of whether we’ll be having a drought this year, it’s a case of when and how bad.”
This will affect our business as we use water to wash the screens we use to screen print garments and promo business gifts. We are currently working on a contingency plan, talking to trade bodies and industry suppliers.
