As we approach this monumental milestone, I urge you all to sign if you haven't, and share the petition over the Easter weekend. With your continued support, I am confident that we can surpass this significant goal.

The latest spill data adds from United Utilities which adds to the 18,900+ spilling hours seen between 2020-2022, bringing the current total to 27,786 hours of untreated sewage spilled in the Windermere catchment in the years 2020-2023. In 2023, Windermere saw 8787 hours of untreated sewage flow into its waters equating to 366 24 hour days.
