Here are some simple ways you can save water:

1. Order a free water saver's pack for your home - Choose between our NEW shower pack and our standard toilet pack. Find out more on our water saver's pack page.

2. Turn off the tap when you brush your teeth - over the year this small change saves enough water to make 40,000 cups of tea!

3. Use a watering can in the garden - hosepipes use up to 540 litres of water an hour (which is a lot when you consider a watering can only holds around 10 litres)

4. Report leaks - if you see a leak in the road or footpath, give us a call on 0800 33 00 33 or complete our online form and we'll do our best to fix it as soon as we can

5. Take a short  shower instead of a bath

6. Use a plug in the kitchen sink instead of running the tap and save a litre of water every six or seven seconds (if you use a bowl you could use this to water your plants)

7. Keep a container of water in the fridge - this avoids having to run the tap for a cool refreshing drink

8. Choose drought resistant plants (such as geraniums) which last longer in dry periods

9. Let your grass grow longer, it will wear better during dry periods

10. Only switch on your dishwasher or washing machine when full
