Multiple leaks in Dulwich, south-east London, have left homes without water or experiencing low pressure. Thames Water said customers in postcodes SE21, SE22 and SE23 are affected. Leaks have been reported on Lordship Lane, London Road near the Horniman Museum and Dulwich Common. Flooding has also caused damage to road surfaces.

Thames Water said it is prioritising keeping customers supplied while working to reduce flooding and minimise disruption.
