Anglian Water has invested in an extensive education programme through the Water in the World initiative as a key component of delivering the social and corporate responsibility agenda.

Since the programme started in 2006, two new education centres; a mobile centre visiting rural communities; a website and education materials have been developed. The programme embraces water for health initiatives of national importance and also provides support for employee volunteers in education related projects.

The education programme is working to change people’s behaviours towards water as a vital resource and foster responsible attitudes on water usage, waste disposal, hydration issues and promote environmental concern.
