Time spent collecting water or finding a place to go accounts for billions of dollars in lost economic opportunities. Affordable access to safe water and sanitation at home turns time spent on collecting water into time to work and earn income. bit.ly/390LnGl

We’re absolutely seconding what Ian says!📢 We need to work together to break the stigma that stops men feeling like they’re able to talk about their mental health. #MensMentalHealthMonth
Luckily, Ian knew he could call when he needed us, but not everyone does. That’s why we’re on a mission to reach the people who need us most and make sure they know we’re here for them. Find out more: bit.ly/3atSH1F

Agonising waits. A system that can't keep up with demand. And a government that isn't doing enough. We have to see action. A quarter ❗️ of 17-19 year olds now have a probable mental health problem. This is a national emergency, and the UK government needs to treat it as one.

Human waste is ‘brown gold’. We must safely process it so we capture gases and recover water, nutrients and energy - putting sanitation at the heart of the circular economy. buff.ly/3zpqZN7 #WaterAction #ClimateChange #Goal6 #COP27 #WorldToiletDay
