Campaigning for clean water in Hastings & St Leonards since 2021

🚨Gov have updated storm overflows plan to include coastal waters + estuaries 🚨

Important to note that this comes after @GoodLawProject @HugoSAS @mcsuk and @rhawardsoysters threatened legal action over the omission of seas in the original plan.

Our own @SouthernWater second worst! Cc @SOSWhitstable

[Jess Shankleman @Jess_Shankleman]

United Utilities and Severn Trent, both listed companies, were one of a handful that outperformed and so are allowed to raise bills. Everyone else is doing very badly. Chart by

A clear explanation of our very muddy water finances: we must rethink how our system is funded to prioritise planet and people! #endsewagepollution

@SOSWhitstable @SouthernWater So true! We want to see our local WWTW outfall tested by @EnvAgency- they test the cleaned effluent prior to release but not the mixed output including storm overflow!

[SOS Whitstable @SOSWhitstable]

"@SouthernWater has now admitted it is unable to say how much sewage it pours into the sea because it does not measure the volume"

How can you claim that a release is 95% rainwater if you don't know this data? Guesswork, that's how.

Come to the The Common Room next Sat afternoon and hear all about our seas! We'll be giving an update on our water testing and recent visit to @SouthernWater 's Treatment Works...

(Also there'll be refreshments! 😁)

[Good Morning Britain @GMB]

In an exclusive investigation, ＠Feargal_Sharkey visited the seaside town of Whitstable, to find out how sewage overflow is having a huge effect on local people, their businesses and their health.

[SOS Whitstable @SOSWhitstable]

The sewage keeps pouring in Felpham (87 hrs), Bexhill (41), Ryde (37), Sandown (31) and Hythe (24) 💩

Any chance of a comment on these latest @SouthernWater releases in their constituencies from @NickGibbUK, @HuwMerriman, @IoWBobSeely or @DamianCollins?

[Clean Water Action! @CleanWaterActGp]

V informative tour of Bexhill and Hastings Wastewater treatment works last week! Thanks to Darren & team for showing us round @SouthernWater
We hope this plant gets the investment it needs to serve the growing catchment so we can #endsewagepollution 🚩👊💩

📢 WE NEED ICE PACKS!
Can you help? Do you or anyone you know have a supply of ice packs? We use them to send off our samples to the lab and we'd love to be able to re-use rather than have to buy new!
DM us your name & no
Thanks Clean Water Lovers! 😁🙏

📝PRESS RELEASE:
We have written to @SouthernWater following receiving a HIGH FAECAL BACTERIA READING at Bulverhythe last week.☣️

@EnvAgency standard is no more than 185cfu/100ml. Our test showed 650 ‼️

#endsewagepollution #cutthecrap

[SOS Whitstable @SOSWhitstable]

Let's go over this again for the benefit of @theresecoffey.

Prior to the Environment Bill, it was illegal for water companies to release other than in 'exceptional circumstances'.

That meant unusually heavy rainfall. (1/3)

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

"‘I do give a s**t about sewage’ says Thérèse Coffey, but gives water companies 27 years to keep polluting."

It really is insulting no doubt we'll all remember that at the next election.
