Utilities

• We provide over eight million people with fresh, clean drinking water every day – that’s about two billion litres. And when they’ve finished with it, we take it away again and clean and treat it before returning it safely to the environment. 
• Our region stretches from the outskirts of Sheffield, down to Bristol, and into north and mid-Wales.
• To make sure that our customers can continue to enjoy our product for years to come, we’re investing more than £6bn between 2020 and 2025 on new and existing assets like pipes, treatment works and reservoirs.
