A POWER cut in Christchurch has left families without supply this morning.
Properties in Somerford, in the BH23 3 area, are affected and are unlikely to be reconnected until this afternoon.
A spokesman for SSE said: "We’re sorry for the loss of supply. Our engineers are on site working hard to get the power back on as quickly as they can."
The power supply was lost just before 1am and SSE said it hopes to restore it by 12.30pm.
Anyone who wants more information is asked to call SSE on 105 or send a message on Facebook or Twitter (@ssencommunity) and quote reference 'GE2136'
