Water Resources Update - 28 April 2023

28th April 2023

South West Water’s Chief Customer and Digital Officer, Laura Flowerdew, said: “Our water resources have been put under immense pressure over the last year and we thank everyone for their support in saving water wherever they have been able to.

“Through our Save Every Drop campaign we are continuing to support customers, businesses and tourists to cut their water usage. This will help make sure there is enough water for everyone throughout the summer, whilst also protecting our beautiful environment across Devon and Cornwall. I encourage customers to visit our website to see what free water-saving support they could get.

“Meanwhile, we are playing our part by investing an additional £75 million this year in water resilience schemes to bring new water sources online, and finding and fixing three times more leaks than last year.”
