Water UK

Water UK represents all statutory water and wastewater service supply organisations in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. It works at national and European level for a strong water industry on behalf of its members and in the interests of all stakeholders.
The association’s focus on national and European policy enables the industry to address issues of common interest and to maximise its contribution to the economy and to quality of life. Water UK identifies gaps or inadequacies in current policy and then works with members and stakeholders to develop alternatives and help deliver benefits as new approaches are implemented.
The core objective is sustainable water policy – actions and solutions that create lasting benefit by integrating economic, environmental and social objectives. Water UK works closely with central and devolved governments and regulators, and maintains strong links with stakeholder groups representing consumer, environmental and professional interests.
The governing body of Water UK is a council of members who are chief executives or senior directors from the water industry. The Water UK website provides commentary and policy positions on the issues of the day. It also hosts electronic networks for Water UK members, covering a wide range of issues.
