Water firm seeks views on how it can do more

PEOPLE are being asked their views on how a water company can become more involved with the local community.

Portsmouth Water is developing a Community Partnership and has produced a leaflet and film to outline the partnership and created an online survey to gather feedback.

It wants to extend its work with communities, schools, charities and local environmental initiatives, to go beyond its daily work ensuring a reliable supply of drinking water for future generations.

This could involve doing more to support wildlife, create education and training opportunities and lend a hand to vulnerable customers

he Community Partnership is being led by employees on the company’s Young Person’s Board, which supports younger staff.

Sam Dawson, chair of the Young Person’s Board said: ‘Ultimately, we just want to help our communities and work together in partnership, to achieve greater things for the whole society.’
