Water Literacy Programme

The Water Literacy Programme is here to inspire you, to help you gain knowledge and play your part in addressing the environmental impact of water scarcity in the UK.

The Water Literacy Programme is an accredited training course delivered across all aspects of the community. It provides citizens with greater awareness and understanding of the systems involved and techniques to empower positive behaviour changes at home, in the workplace or in their community as well as signposting to further learning around water and climate change. 

The Water Literacy Programme has the potential to be more than a course. It’s a movement, driving you to turn a drop of knowledge into a wave of change. You will be equipped with innovative tools, strategies, and the knowhow needed to become accredited as water literate. But you don’t just leave with an accreditation. You will be empowered to lead your colleagues, support your communities, and influence your industry to consciously adopt a sustainable water-use approach. Because our collective actions create ripples, turning into waves of change, reshaping practices, policies, and perceptions of water where you live and work.

The Water Literacy pilot programme is now coming to an end and there are no further free training sessions scheduled at this time.

We want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who has supported the programme, from booking and attending training sessions, to taking part in the evaluation and helping spread the word.
 
Demand for the programme has been incredibly high, with interest and enquiries coming from across the UK and beyond. We’re now using the insights and feedback from those of you who have undertaken the training to shape what comes next. The programme team is working closely with partners to develop the future of Water Literacy, and we’ll share updates via this list, the Waterwise newsletter and the Water Literacy website as plans progress.
 
If you would like to discuss running a course within your organisation, please do get in touch, we are developing delivery options and costings and would be pleased to hear from you.
 
Thank you again for being part of the Water Literacy journey so far. We’re excited about what comes next.
