WATER SHORTAGES:

The prolonged lack of rain in many parts of the UK is leading to water shortages, prompting several water companies to impose, or look to impose, hosepipe bans in the regions that they supply. These include Southern Water, South East Water, Thames Water, Welsh Water and Yorkshire Water. You may well have seen this covered a lot in the media recently.

Whilst these water restrictions will mainly affect residential customers, businesses are also being asked to use water wisely. If river and reservoir levels don’t recover, then restrictions on commercial water usage will also be imposed.

So, what can you do?

Here are 5 steps to save water (and money) in your business:

1. Equip: start by having the right equipment such as lever taps or dual-flush toilets
2. Check: carry out regular checks – or even a water audit – to identify water efficiency opportunities
3. Use: look at how you can use water differently e.g. don’t keep the tap running for longer than needed and only fill the kettle with as much water as you need
4. Recycle: think about other uses for wasted water
5. Communicate: engage and inform your employees about the big role they can play in saving water in your business
