One Minute Brief of the Day: Advertise #WaterMeters with @SESWater
Today we've got a brief with a brilliant brand and a great prize for the winner too! All you've got to do is tweet your One Minute posters to @oneminutebriefs and @SESWater for your chance to win.
PRIZE: £100 high street shopping card and FREE water saving devices.
In the South East each person uses an average of 160 litres of water per day, which equates to almost two bath tubs. In areas with a dense population there is less rainfall per person than in many Mediterranean countries and 7.7 million households need to share the same water resources. If you run the tap while brushing your teeth you could be wasting as much as 24 litres every day which is the same as 9 bathtubs each month. Reducing your time in the shower from 10 minutes to 4 will save 336 litres of water every week.
Water meters are widely accepted as the fairest way of charging for water as you pay for what you use (in the same way as other household utilities like gas and electricity). They are also a key way for water companies to meet their commitments around reducing customer usage. This is especially important for SES Water that has one of the highest levels of usage in the country, and a growing population.
Around 50% of the properties in SES Water’s supply area are metered but as we do not have a compulsory metering programme, increasing the number of metered properties largely relies on convincing customers of the benefits to them so that they apply for one. This becomes more challenging as the pool of unmetered properties gets smaller and water is already comparatively cheap to pay for. The main benefit for bill payers is the ability to control their bill, thereby saving money.
The specific offer from SES Water is:
All homes have a right to have a water meter fitted for free (where practical)
We guarantee that domestic customers will not pay more for their water supply for the first two years as a result of having a meter installed
Customers can choose to have their meter removed free of charge up to the end of the two year period
Every meter application will be entered into our monthly competition to win £50 in high street shopping vouchers
