Rotary Radio UK Supporting Water Survival Box

On Thursday 14th March 2024 [Steve Wood Rotarian and Station Presenter] visited the Water Survival Box team at their main depot at Westfield, a few miles outside Bath. Staffed by members of a number of Rotary clubs in the area the charity prepares water survival boxes, which contain a water purification pump, water carriers and a range of essential items that will enable people whose homes and life support systems have been swept away by a "natural" or man-made disaster. At each meeting of the team 60 boxes are packed and stored on pallets ready for dispatch when disaster strikes. The charity purchases all the equipment that go into the boxes using funds donated by people from its fund-raising efforts.

We are creating a video of our visit and the work of Water Survival Box and we will post this in the near future.
