Report overview

This Interim Financial Report covers our financial statements from between April to September 2024, along with our current and planned investments in the region.

While we still have more work to do, we're committed to a zero-compromise approach to all pollution incidents and are investing more than ever into improving the resilience of our network.

2025–30 Investments

We surveyed 25,000 customers about our plan and we've shaped our plan to respond to the priorities they identified.

Our new Business Plan for 2025–30 will look to nearly double our spend to £7.8 billion, making it the largest investment we have ever made over a five-year period. We estimate this plan will also create 5,000 jobs across the region, representing a spend of about £3,500 per household.

Key takeaways

As well as increasing investments in our region over the coming years, we're also looking to double the number of customers receiving support on social tariffs, increase the Hardship Fund to £1.25 million and expand the Priority Services Register to reach 20% of customers.

Together, we can make sure we're providing our region, our customers and our environment with a resilient water future where generations to come can enjoy the communities we all live in.
