Separating fact from fiction
Over the last 18 months, the water industry has been under the microscope. We have heard the concerns of our customers loud and clear and recognise that we need to do better. However, in today’s fast-paced digital world, misinformation can spread rapidly, causing unnecessary confusion and concerns.
Here at Anglian Water, we're committed to being open and transparent about our business and its processes, which is why it's important that the information you receive is accurate and reliable.
Facts of the Matter is a series of content that looks to separate fact from fiction. By providing evidence-based information, we hope to help you understand the realities of water management and the projects we are working on to improve infrastructure, eliminate harm to the environment and ultimately, continue to provide our customers with a high quality service.
We are dedicated to answering your questions and addressing your concerns with the latest scientific research and data. Hopefully, together, we can dispel myths and promote informed discussions.
