England could need around five billion extra litres of water every day by the 2050s. Climate change, population growth and rising demand mean our current supplies will not be enough.

Reducing leaks and cutting demand will help, but they won't close the gap on their own. That's why new water infrastructure is essential.

RAPID is working with others to develop projects including reservoirs, water transfers, water recycling and desalination. Together, these will help make our water supplies more resilient, sustainable and drought resistant.
