Ditch the hosepipe
Hosepipes use hundreds of litres of water an hour. Use a watering can for your plants, and a bucket and sponge for your car, and you’ll be doing the environment a good turn.
Congratulations Cumbria, you’ve saved 150 million litres of water to raise £25,000!

Turn off the tap
Something as small as turning off the tap while you brush your teeth will save six litres of water every minute and could reduce your water bill by as much as £100 a year!
Reduce hot water use
You can make a big saving on your energy bills if you reduce the amount of hot water which is wasted in the home. For example, only switching on dishwashers and washing machines when you have a full load makes a difference.
