Our aim is to transform the future of rainwater management to help reduce surface water flooding and sewer spills into the environment. We connect organisations such as water companies and local authorities with communities who are passionate about change.
Our climate is changing and our water supplies are under increasing pressure. Through downpipe disconnection schemes we help communities to capture and preserve our most precious resource – our rainwater!
Our end-to-end service empowers rainwater management that works for communities. From sparking initial engagement, to managing sign-ups, and delivering installation, we streamline the process for the organisations, installers, and communities that we work with.
If we all work together to capture the rainwater falling on our roofs we can start to make a difference. Why are we letting this precious resource flow into the drain? If we all capture our rainwater, we might be able to help reduce surface water flooding, and sewer spills into our rivers. We can also store the water to use on the garden when the weather is dry.
Our innovative approach places positive engagement with communities at the heart of our platform. Through this we help water companies to demonstrate their commitment to deliver change. Our solution is both scalable and effective, offering measurable benefits for water companies and the communities they serve.
Our service, combined with our team's expertise, provides the systems required to bring local authorities and communities together. Our approach delivers innovative solutions for surface water flooding, sewage spills into the environment, and resilience against drought.
Our partnerships with schools are driving action to manage stormwater in more sustainable and creative ways. We are able to work with schools to provide custom learning materials, workshops, and activities that are designed to help students to become a core part of positive change in their schools and communities.
Hosted by WaterWise, this annual event celebrates its 8th year, rallying individuals, households, and communities to take action in conserving water resources. In this post, we delve into the significance of Water Saving Week, explore the challenges of water scarcity in the UK, and provide practical tips for everyday people to make a difference.
We are thrilled to have worked on The Flood Resistent Garden featuring at this years Chelsea Flower Show in collaboration with Flood Re, Dr Ed Barsley and Naomi Slade. Our experienced team provided technical expertise assisting in the creation process to help simulate a real garden experience in relation to rainwater capture and tank release.
March 22 marks an important date on the global calendar – World Water Day. This day serves as a poignant reminder of the invaluable resource that sustains life on our planet: water. As we acknowledge World Water Day, it’s crucial to reflect on the significance of water conservation and the collective efforts required to ensure its availability for future generations.
