Severn Trent staff have pledged to go ‘Grease Fighting’ in new movie-inspired campaign to prevent damaging drain blockages – and ensure more flood-free ‘Summer Nights’.<br />Staff slipped into character to help share all important messages in a video evoking the spirit of the classic Rydell High musical, which famously starred Hollywood legend John Travolta as Danny and the late Olivia Newton-John as Sandy.<br />Teams at Severn Trent are ‘Hopelessly Devoted’ to getting the message across to customers, who have been told ‘You’re The One That We Want’ to support the campaign.<br />Slashing the amount of fats, oils and greases (FOG) dumped down sinks and toilets is a huge priority for Severn Trent, as they can potentially create damaging fatbergs - which can in turn lead to sewer blockages and flooding incidents.<br />Instead, householders are urged to let the FOG cool before scraping into a container, jar or tin and putting it safely in the bin, so they can protect their homes and avoid potentially costly drain blockage issues.
