Our region is like nowhere else in the world. It's home to the rarest chalk streams, and Waterways that have sustained local life, for thousands of years.
Our job is to find a balance between what our customers use, and our local environment needs, because looking after our streams for the future, means doing out part to protect them today.
The water we supply is vital to our customers. They drink it, cook with it and wash with it. Without it, their lives become impossible.
We don't just serve our customers; we live with them. They're our friends, our families and our neighbours, Which means that good enough is never enough. And more than anything else it helps us remember, that we do more than just supply people with water. We take care of water.
None of us are at our best unless we’re healthy and happy. The jobs we do are important, but that should never stop us enjoying our lives at work and at home. Our Wellbeing Committee exists to put people’s wellbeing first, with an established programme to support every team at Affinity Water.
We hold company-wide health and wellbeing webinars on a range of topics including Seasonal Affective Disorder, resilience, mental health, sleep, stress and finding your work-life balance. We also partner with established charities to raise awareness about health issues. We’re committed to creating an inclusive culture at Affinity Water, making sure that everyone feels comfortable bringing their true self to work.
Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusivity (EDI) Committee organises regular company-wide events, giving everyone the chance to get involved.
In the past year we’ve run a variety of company-wide webinars on subjects including International Women's Day, Diverse Minds, Celebrating Pride, Black Voices Matter and International Men's Day. These popular events provide an opportunity for our people to share, listen to others and discuss their experiences in a safe environment.
