Meet Portsmouth Water at Havant Community Drop-in Event
A water company is hosting a drop-in event for shoppers
Portsmouth Water is inviting local residents to a community drop-in event at the Meridian Shopping Centre on Saturday 25 April, from 10am to 4pm.
The event offers customers the opportunity to speak directly with the team about key local projects and services. Topics will include the Havant Thicket Reservoir, smart water metering, and the range of support schemes and tariffs available to customers.
Visitors can drop in at any time to ask questions and find out more about these initiatives.
Bob Taylor, Chief Executive Officer at Portsmouth Water, said: “As a local company with a long history of serving our community, going out and speaking to our customers in person is incredibly important to us.
“This is a really exciting time for Portsmouth Water. We’re delivering our largest ever investment programme over the next five years, as well as building the first major new UK reservoir in over three decades. We are also in the process of rolling out smart water meters to our customers, supporting homes in our supply area to detect leaks early and helping them to reduce water use.
“We’re absolutely committed to keeping our customers informed and involved as these projects progress and are also conscious of the pressures they may be facing themselves because of the rising cost of living. This event is an opportunity for people to have an informal chat with us, learn more about what we’re doing locally and also talk through what support measures we may be able to offer them. We’re really looking forward to Saturday and would encourage anyone who would like to speak to us, to come along.”
The event is free to attend, with no booking required.
