We’re in court today

We’re in court today. Our legal team will be making the case that Ofwat has failed to meet their responsibilities to regulate discharges of raw sewage and Mr Justice Bourne will decide whether or not our challenge can go to a full legal hearing at a later date.

We wrote to Ofwat about this matter in April and launched a crowdfunder when we filed detailed legal papers in June (see here for more details).

We are certain that we have a strong case, and we know that this subject is one that attracts considerable attention from the general public – which is why our crowdfunder was so successful.  Thank you for getting us this far, and we hope that we can take the challenge further. Fingers crossed!
