Conclusion (the committee's words)
In July 2019, a group of organisations, including the Environment Agency and Water UK, the trade association for water companies, launched the ‘Love Water’ campaign to raise awareness of the importance of water and the role everyone plays in protecting it.34 We asked the Environment Agency about the funding the campaign had received. It told us that the campaign has no direct funding and that it is a collective campaign, supported by voluntary water company contributions, Water UK and the Environment Agency.35 The Department told us that, as yet, although some water companies had provided staff resources, it had not yet secured any direct financial contributions towards the campaign from water companies.36
