Anglian Water Group

Water utility serving nearly 7 million customers in the East of England, covering water supply, wastewater recycling, environmental management and climate resilience since 1989.

Anglian Water Group is a water utility serving the East of England, supplying clean water and recycling wastewater across the largest geographic coverage area in England and Wales. Founded in 1989, the company serves nearly 7 million customers in what is the driest region in England. Its operations span water supply, wastewater recycling, environmental management and climate resilience, including flood and drought management.

The scale of the network presents distinct engineering and operational challenges. Managing an integrated water cycle over the largest service area in England and Wales, in the country's driest region, places water resource management, leakage control and climate adaptation at the centre of the company's technical work. Technical domains include water supply, wastewater recycling, environmental management and climate resilience.

Anglian Water Group describes its mission as 'Love Every Drop', framing water as one of the country's most precious resources and committing to environmental and social prosperity for the region alongside its utility functions. In 2019 it became the first water company to enshrine public interest in its constitution, through enhanced Articles of Association. Its decision-making is structured around six capitals - natural, social, financial, manufactured, people and intellectual - with an emphasis on long-term, intergenerational outcomes for customers, communities and the environment.
