We understand that education starts early, and we’re passionate about inspiring young minds to care for our environment. Our dedicated Education Team works across a wide range of learning settings, from primary schools to higher education institutions and home learners.
In targeted areas, our Education Team can offer face-to-face workshop and event-based workshops. Across the Anglian Water region they offer virtual sessions for primary schools and a variety of online self-delivery lesson plans and resource packs for teachers.
Our sessions help students explore our vital role in protecting the environment, the importance of water management, and the impact of climate change on our region.
