In the UK, we use an unnecessary amount of water every day. Not only does this waste water but also wastes the energy that went into cleaning it both before it came out of the tap and after it has drained away. To help people understand the ways in which we can all use less water, we have come up with some challenges for you to try! The idea is that you get sponsored to do the challenge and the money you raise goes to WaterAid to help people who aren't as lucky as we are. The challenge helps raise awareness of the issue and helps you realise that you don't need as much water as you think!
Waterless weekend
This is two days of living on 15l of water each day. It will be tough, but this is the amount of water that we actually NEED to survive
Sustainable Seven
Less extreme but just as important. We challenge you to live for a week using 75l of water or less per day. This is half the average usage of a UK citizen.
Throughout your challenge you can keep a diary and we can publish it in the dairies section of the website. Your experiences and top tips will be super useful for anyone looking to cut down on their water consumption.
Good Luck!
