River Itchen, Hampshire    Water

In Hampshire, we have a unique and internationally recognised water environment, from which Hampshire’s residents and businesses take the water that they use on a day to day basis. Yet, our water resources are subject to ever increasing pressure from factors such as ongoing development, increasing per-capita water consumption, and climate change. 

Hampshire County Council (HCC) recognises that a clean and reliable water supply is essential for environmental, social and economic sustainability. As such, HCC has led the formation of a diverse partnership of organisations who are presenting a unified voice in tacking water sustainability issues. The Hampshire Water Partnership approach is recognised as the leading example in the UK of how local authorities should be addressing water issues.
