Following a successful pilot in Cardiff and Newport last year, we’re delighted to be working in partnership with Dwr Cymru Welsh Water to deliver our Water Efficiency Home Visit service to customers on water meters in the Cardiff area. Under the scheme Groundwork officers conduct a home visit, provide customers with advice on how they can save water and fit water saving devices. The programme aims to save an average of 60 litres per day per household – equivalent to a saving of around £75 on a household bill.
