• Water Challenges - Past, Present and Future.
  Tuesday 3rd November, at the Royal Society for Public Health, 28 Portland Place, London W1B 1DE.
  
  Provision of sufficient quantities of safe drinking water is key in ensuring a high standard of public health. Climatic and environmental changes, together with population growth, are affecting the provision of drinking water in many countries, including the United Kingdom. This brings challenges to the water industry and public health practitioners. This one day conference brings together experts from the Drinking Water Inspectorate, the Health Protection Agency, the WHO and DEFRA to review and discuss these challenges and their effect on the availability of water at current levels of consumption. It will focus on water resources in the UK, water-borne disease, rainwater harvesting, grey water reuse and sewage effluent recycling.
