Wateraid
We in Wales are fortunate as we can enjoy fresh, clean water straight from the taps in our homes. Sadly not everyone across the world is in this position, with water being in short supply in many regions of the world. Wateraid are aiming to change this.
A lot of people in the world have to walk long distances to collect their drinking water. We all need clean water, no matter who we are or where we live.
However, 696 million people – that’s almost 1 in 10 of us, on Earth – are still living without clean water close to home. WaterAid work with people, communities and decision makers to provide clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene.
Since 2017, WaterAid Uganda has helped improve water services in small towns in Uganda. They support better management, fix leaks, and help raise money to keep water flowing. With the support of Welsh Water's technical knopwledge and advice, the areas of Buyende, Namayingo and Namutumba are advancing their efforts to help more people access clean water.
