ABOUT USWe believe in water for life
We provide water for life to enhance health and wellbeing, protect and improve the environment and sustain the economy.
Our Environmental Performance - Our commitment to the environment
We want to provide greater transparency about our environmental performance
We're committed to both protecting and improving our environment. A big part of this is being transparent about what we're doing and the progress we're making.
From our goal of reaching net zero by 2050 to significantly reducing our reliance on storm overflows, we're focused on working in a responsible, sustainable way while delivering the service our customers expect.
Together, we can create a resilient water future for our region.
Our Plans - Creating a resilient water future
The UK water industry faces several challenges in the coming years. In the South East, population growth and the effects of climate change will put increased pressure on our water sources.
If we're to successfully navigate and overcome these challenges, we'll need extensive and careful planning along with huge investments. The business plans we've published lay out these challenges, both current and projected and what we plan to do in response. This includes taking both immediate and long-term action to improve our performance, protect our environment and continue to provide high-quality drinking water and wastewater services to our customers.
