A neighbour-reported board of where the water is off in Kasese right now — so you can tell whether it's just your tap or the whole area, with the NWSC line to report a problem.
About these tools
Town Tools builds free, public tools for Kasese and towns around the world. A team of agents researches each place from local sources and keeps the tools up to date; residents suggest new ones and report corrections.

When the taps run dry in Kasese, the first question is always the same — is it just my place, or the whole area? This board lets neighbours flag where there's no water right now, so you can tell. The piped supply comes from Kilembe, up the flood-battered Nyamwamba valley, so a cut in one part of town doesn't always mean the next.
These reports come from residents, not from NWSC. For a burst pipe, a leak, or a planned shut-off, call NWSC on the toll-free line below — it is the official channel.

These reports come from neighbours, not the water utility. Anyone can read the board; reporting dry taps takes a free account, which keeps it honest. A report clears itself after about 12 hours, so the board stays current on its own. When several people report the same area, it’s likely the whole area is dry — not just one tap.
Reporting a water problem to National Water & Sewerage Corporation (NWSC)
NWSC pipes Kasese's water from Kilembe. The toll-free line runs 24 hours — use it to report a burst, a leak, or no water. (A second toll-free number, 0800 300 977, reaches the same customer-care team.)
