Meet the team leading on water supply for Hampshire, as well as our Clean Rivers and Seas Task Force, and the team tackling blockages from unflushables, fats, oils and grease.

Water Supply: The Water Supply Challenge is an exciting, award-winning educational resource that simulates a real-life engineering project. Work in teams to construct and test your water supply network. Make decisions on the choice of route, customer needs and environmental impact. Along the way, consider the challenges you face as a water company, including ensuring sufficient future supply for all of your customers.

Fats, Oils, Grease and Unflushables: What are the biggest culprits causing blockages to our sewer system? What's the weirdest thing that's been found? Chat to the team and pick up handy freebies to help at home.

Clean Rivers and Seas: Explore sustainable drainage in action with our interactive model. Southern Water is investing in green solutions to capture rainwater before it enters the combined sewer. Have a go and see how my water can be captured using sustainable drainage solutions and how this simple approach can play a vital role in reducing storm overflows and protecting our rivers and seas.
