Once again, we’re back with a joint study alongside our brilliant allies, Windrush Against Sewage Pollution.

You may have seen last week’s headlines exposing the shocking scale of sewage dumping across the country in 2024. But what we’ve uncovered in Windermere is even more disturbing.

Last year saw the highest number of illegal spilling days ever recorded in any of our reports to date. Illegal sewage dumping in Windermere has been happening for years—but 2024 surpassed anything we’ve revealed before, seeing 140 days with illegal spills.

This is a national disgrace.

Our investigation with Professor Peter Hammond has been covered extensively by the BBC and other major media outlets. Now, we want to give you, our supporters, a closer look at how we exposed the truth—and what comes next.

If you’re as outraged as we are and want to help us hold United Utilities to account, please consider supporting our work by following the link attached.

Thank you for standing with us.
