What’s the Problem?
More than 1 billion people don't have access to clean water.
That is about one sixth of the world's total population. And the problem is getting worse.
By 2025 it is estimated that more than 3 Billion people could be affected by serious water shortages. Unsafe drinking water and poor sanitation kill 4,000 children everyday.
Save Water
The simplest of actions can make a world of difference not only to the water situation here in the UK, but to the global climate and to our neighbours in other countries too. Here are a few ideas to wet your appetite.
· TURN OFF THE TAP WHILE BRUSHING YOUR TEETH.
· TAKE A SHOWER INSTEAD OF A BATH.
· REDUCE AND RE-USE.
Save Lifes
Even simpler actions and choices can save lives of people in the developing world. Water is vital to development and in almost every situation is the first step to improving health, education, livelihood for a better future. Here's a few ways you can make a difference:
· GIVE A LITTLE, GIVE A LOT. On average, just £10 will provide a family with clean, safe water for life!
· FUND THE COST OF BUILDING A WELL.
What are we doing?
In addition to the everyday changes we can all try to make, our Youth Church “The Solution” has raised funds to build a well to give the gift of water for life.
Make the change Save Water, Save Life’s.
