Our commitment to you

Day to day, our skilled technicians, engineers, and contractors manage and maintain the operation and performance of our drinking water network. This involves finding and fixing leaks, fitting meters, monitoring reservoir levels and transferring water around the network to where it's needed.

Into the future, we have some major plans to upgrade our network to make it even bigger and better. To make these plans a reality, we’ll be working with our wonderful partners including the Wildlife Trusts, Historic England, the Environment Agency, the National Trust and local and district councils. These plans take us up to 2050 when we will have achieved:
