Description: This workshop explored the role potentially to be played by rainwater harvesting in addressing the medium to long-term water supply situation in the UK.

Following an EA overview of current water supply/resource issues, the presentations explained how modern rainwater harvesting systems work, their impact from a developer’s viewpoint, and their measured performance in UK service.
