Options

We’d like to invite you to submit your options and contribute to regional water resources planning. Let’s work together to create a resilient future for water.

We’re at an exciting time in water resource management for the Water Resources West region, with ambitious plans to maintain a secure supply of water for people and businesses, whilst also protecting and enhancing the environment. In order to meet these challenges, water users are considering a range of solutions to meet their water needs, from building reservoirs and water supply schemes to more innovative solutions looking to optimise systems or improving water use efficiency. Looking forward, we aim to discover, collate and understand the opportunities that exist across the region. The more options we can consider, the more resilient our plan will be.

We’re interested in ideas from all water users, from agriculture, energy and industry to environmental organisations, IDBs, water companies and more. Every option is valuable; whether you have an early-stage concept or a shovel ready scheme, we’re keen to hear from you. Even the smallest schemes could add up to significant water savings. Sharing your ideas on water resources, demand management, and leakage services will help shape the next Regional Plan for Water Resources West due in 2029.

IdeaStream has now launched here.

IdeaStream is Water Resources West’s new online collaboration platform. It allows people to get involved in our consultations and plans to shape the future of water resources across the North West, the Midlands and the cross-border catchments with Wales

In IdeaStream you’ll be able to join discussion forums to share your ideas and collaborate with people from multiple sectors. You’ll also find a host of consultations to get involved with.

As you will be aware, ensuring a sustainable and resilient future for our water resources is incredibly important. We estimate that the region will need over additional 200 million litres of water per day by 2050, meaning that we must work together to find new opportunities to meet these needs.

It’s vital that interested groups from across Wales, the North West and Midlands feed into these plans. We need to understand your needs, ambitions and opportunities, so we can ensure that we are prepared for the future.

So join IdeaStream and help us shape the future of water.
