Be a water saving hero

You might know roughly how many pints of milk you use a day, but do you know how much water you get through? We live in a seriously ‘water stressed region’ and every drop saved can help protect our supply.

The average amount of water used by one person in our region, every day, is 146 litres (that’s 257 pint bottles of milk). But to ensure we don’t run out in the future; we need to reduce this to 125 litres. Check out our water saving calculator to find out how you can save.
