Connecting People, Protecting Water

Vision

Southern England faces growing pressure on its water resources—from high population density and ageing infrastructure to climate change and pollution. These challenges threaten our health, environment, and economy.

Clean Water South (CWS) is a collaborative network bringing together regulators, industry, NGOs, communities, and researchers to tackle these issues head-on. We provide a safe, inclusive space for open dialogue, shared learning, and coordinated action.

Our Aim

To build a resilient, sustainable future for water in Southern England by connecting diverse stakeholders and driving innovative solutions.
