Education

Book a school visit, site tour or virtual session to learn more about our water and sewerage services.

What do we cover?

We work with hundreds of nurseries, pre-schools, schools, colleges and universities every year to teach children and students about what we do.

We cover a range of topics, including water and sewage treatment, the water cycle, river studies, climate change and much more.

We also aim to educate future customers about how they can help protect the sewer network and the environment by saving water and flushing the correct items down the loo.
