Date: Tuesday 11th Feb 2025 7:00-9:00pm

Location:Memorial Hall, South Downs Centre, GU29 9DH https://w3w.co/hillsides.looked.torches, 11^th Feb 7-9pm.

Join us for an inspiring evening at WSRT's fourth Film Night - Pure Clean Water! Hear all about the importance and risks of our important Chalk Streams.

For 250 years a chalk stream, diverted into the town centre, provided Cambridge with drinking water. It was a hugely successful public health initiative, supported by both town and university.

Now, pumping from underground chalk aquifers brings potable water at great convenience. But in the process springs are drying up and precious chalk streams are disappearing.

Water companies, regulators, businesses, land owners, consumers and government have overseen a developing groundwater emergency. Can these groups come together to ensure that Cambridge has a reliable water supply without further damaging the environment?
