World Water Day: The NHS Water Agenda

World Water Day is celebrated annually on March 22nd. It’s a global initiative that the United Nations established in 1993. The day aims to highlight the importance of freshwater and advocate for water conservation. In 2023, we mark the 21st anniversary of this event, using it to celebrate water and raise awareness about its essential role.  

Did you know the NHS spent approximately £260 million on water and sewerage in 2020/2021? 

This does not just come as a financial cost for the NHS, but it also costs the environment. Nevertheless, the NHS is dedicated to reducing its water usage and enhancing sustainability. In line with NHS England's guidance, implementing water-efficiency measures could potentially yield substantial financial savings of up to 20%, equating to an annual saving of £9.5 million.  

 Join us for this webinar as we discuss the services, processes, and that can assist the NHS in reducing water waste and changing behaviours.
