Water Reuse Week 2025
Water Reuse Week 2025 ran from the 15th–21st September this year. Our national campaign hoped to raise awareness of the importance of saving and reusing water. Everyone, from large organisations to individual households, can play a part, even beyond Water Reuse Week.
You can read on to learn about how you can do your part, and then we show you some of the things we did to raise awareness ourselves.
Companies
Companies are invited to contact the UK WRA to discuss water reuse systems for their businesses. They can audit water usage on site and identify opportunities for grey water of rainwater reuse. Also, they can pledge to reduce water consumption and share their commitment on social media using #WaterReuseWeekUK.
Schools
Schools can access the online resources, and also the video which the UK WRA have produced to teach children about water reuse from a young age. Schools can also encourage pupils to design water saving posters, conduct water audits at school or potentially to create a rain garden. Pupils will be encouraged to take part in the national poster design competition.
Individuals and families
Everyone at home can make simple, powerful changes by doing the following:
-
Collecting rainwater for gardening using water butts,
-
Reusing water where safe – such as using cooled pasta cooking water to water plants,
-
Installing water-saving devices, like dual flush systems or aerated shower heads,
-
Turning off the tap while brushing teeth,
-
Fixing leaks promptly – even a dripping tap can waste litres a day,
-
Spreading the word on social media to raise awareness and encourage others to act.
Klargester
Klargester
At Klargester, we had water saving banners and posters up in our office to get oursevles into the mood. We promoted Rainwater Harvesting during the lead up to and during the week.
We then hosted an assembly at our local primary school and gifted a water saving system for their vegetable patch and flower garden. We also provided water saving posters to be put up at the school.
Then we had a really exciting visit to Parliament!
We held an water saving quiz in our office to spread awareness and test our knowledge, and we even ordered our employees reusable water bottles.
