Bridging the Skills Gap for Water Reuse | EWSC Autumn Webinar

Hosted by Enabling Water Smart Communities

Event description

Welcome to the Enabling Water Smart Communities Autumn 2025 Webinar Series. This webinar series will offer a chance to take a closer look at some of the recent projects and outputs from the Enabling Water Smart Communities (EWSC) project.

This webinar will focus on the recently published EWSC report 'Bridging the skills gap for water reuse in the UK', developed in collaboration with Waterwise. This report identifies that current workforce and supply chain capabilities are insufficient to meet projected demand for water reuse schemes, which are essential for tackling water scarcity and supporting housing growth – but there is action that can be taken to fill this skills gap.

This will be an opportunity to hear more about the report's key findings, as well as offering a chance to hear from those involved in putting the report together.
