Save a little water
With hotter summers and less rainfall, the water in our rivers, aquifers and reservoirs gets topped up less often. And a growing population in our region means we have more people and less water to go round.
Did you know the South East of England is officially water stressed?
While we are working hard to increase our storage capacity and reduce leakage, we should all look to use less water where we can.
Thankfully, when we work together, small changes make a lot of difference.

Saving water outside
Swapping a hose for a watering can save up to 1,000 litres of water an hour. And fitting a water butt to collect rainwater to use in your garden could save you over 800 litres of water a year.

Saving water in your business
Water is a precious resource. Every year the population of the South East grows, but the amount of available water remains the same. That’s why we’re aiming for a 9% reduction in business demand by 2037.
