South East Water invites customers to quiz bosses
- Published
Customers of South East Water have been invited to meet the firm’s senior team to discuss the drinking water supplies in the region.
The public, as well as stakeholders, have been invited to attend a virtual meeting to ask questions about the company and its £1.9bn five-year investment plan.
The meeting, called Behind the Tap: Your Drinking Water Questions Answered, is set to take place from 18:00 GMT to 20:00 on Tuesday.
South East Water has about 2.3m customers across East and West Sussex, Kent, Surrey, Hampshire and Berkshire.
A spokesman for the company said it was an opportunity for customers to ask questions about the plan, which is currently being reviewed by the water regulator, Ofwat.
“Over recent years, the south east of England has seen a significant change in the climate, a growing population and big shift in people's working habits that means that more people are working from home, rather than perhaps commuting to London,” he said.
“More recently, we've all had to face up to the challenges of the cost of living crisis. All of these factors affect how South East Water supplies drinking water to you.”
The event is free to attend, but customers must register online, external.
