ABOUT USOur vision is to be the water company people want to be supplied by and want to work for.
We supply top-quality drinking water to 2.3 million customers in the southeast of England.
Through a network of 9,000 miles of pipe, we deliver 544 million litres of water every day. It's the skill and expertise of our employees that ensures our water meets the highest standards.
We make sure we can meet the needs of our customers both now and in the future.
To supply today’s customers, we draw water from more than 250 boreholes, six rivers and six reservoirs. This water is treated at one of our 87 treatment works.
To maintain such a vast – and vital – service, our business must never stand still. We're investing more than £433 million between 2020-2025 to develop new resources, extend and upgrade treatment works and lay new water mains.
Our customers rely on a secure supply of our natural resource – water. That’s why we see our role as guardians of the environment.
Our Purpose
Our purpose is centred around our core functions as provider of the public water service, both for now and the future.
It reflects our wider societal and environmental goals delivered through performing our core service, recognising the key challenges of legitimacy, climate change and sustainability.
It demonstrates a stakeholder inclusive approach meant to achieve a fair balance between the interest of customers, the environment and other stakeholders.
Our Vision
Our vision is to be the water company people want to be supplied by and want to work for.
