"And We sent down water from the sky in due measure, then We lodged it in the earth, and of course, We are able to take it away."

(Surah Al-Mu'minun, 23:18)

This Water Saving Week, commit to at least one water-saving habit you can keep up all year round!

Let your lawn go brown, it’ll bounce back once the rain comes!

Put leftover ice cubes and water from washed fruit and veg in the houseplants

Paths and driveways get a sweep, not a hose-down. Dirt doesn’t need drinking water to disappear

Flush only when necessary - each flush uses 6/9 litres of drinking water that could be saved

Only fill the kettle with the water you need, to save water and energy

Turning off the tap while brushing saves enough water to make 100 cups of tea a week

Wait for the washing machine and dishwasher to be full before running, half loads waste water

Collect rainwater in a water butt to keep the garden happy when the sun’s out!

Water the plants in the morning & evening - less evaporation, more hydration!
