We want to work with you

Funding is available now for projects that help you build local resilience and meet your strategic objectives by embedding sustainable water management solutions into design.

We’re looking for projects that could remove or attenuate surface water from the combined sewer system — for example, town regeneration, active travel, and flood risk management.

We can support projects through:

  1. Co-delivery: Partner with us in the planning, delivery, and ownership of blue–green projects.
  2. United Utilities design & build: We’ll lead on the design and delivery of these projects, but we need support from our strategic partners to ensure effective and efficient delivery.
  3. Up to 80% co‑funding: Available to local authority–led projects that are delivering sustainable drainage solutions (criteria apply).

If you’re a local authority, you might have heard of our Sustainable Water Fund. You can see the standard agreement here.
