Water scarcity is a pressing challenge for Suffolk, driven by a combination of climate change, regional growth, and infrastructure demands.

The Suffolk Business Water Group, funded by Anglian Water and Essex & Suffolk Water, exists to address these challenges and empower local businesses with the tools and resources to manage water more effectively.

Suffolk and the wider eastern region face unique pressures as a result of:

• Low rainfall compared to the national average,
• A rapidly growing population and increased housing developments,
• Major infrastructure projects, such as Sizewell C, that place additional strain on existing water resources.

By working together, we can ensure businesses across Suffolk are equipped to adapt to these water challenges while contributing to a sustainable future for the region.
