A broken water pipe that could have led to operations being cancelled at a children's hospital has been repaired.
Engineers worked all day at the Royal Alexandra Hospital for Sick Children in Brighton yesterday after the problem was discovered in the morning.
The leak meant not enough water was getting into the hospital and its heating system could not be used.
The sterile services unit was also unable to prepare equipment needed for operations.
However, the hospital brought in replacement heating and enough equipment had already been prepared for operations to go ahead for the day.
