Isle of Wight residents are invited to a public meeting on Tuesday evening (6pm on 19th April) in Seaview to meet with representatives from Southern Water in a public meeting at the Sea View Yacht Club – with the aim of keeping sewage off our beaches and holding Southern Water to account.

The water company accepted the invitation from Cllr David Adams (IW Council and Nettlestone and Seaview Parish Council) to meet and has agreed to send senior management and engineers to face questions from members of the public.

Cllr David Adams says,

“This is a valuable and welcome opportunity for the local community to meet directly with representatives of the organisation entrusted with safeguarding one of our most precious resources: our water.

“As a coastal community, with an ageing, underinvested infrastructure, it is vital we as customers continue to engage with Southern Water and hold them to account, so I encourage everyone to join us at the meeting on Tuesday to demonstrate the strong affinity with protecting our environment that I know exists.”
