UN SDGs

UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

We align our ESG approach with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to support global sustainability outcomes and inform our strategic priorities. As we progress against our 2025–2030 ESG targets, each target has been mapped to the SDGs it most directly supports, ensuring continued alignment with international frameworks.

Our most significant contribution continues to be to SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation, which reflects our core purpose as a water and wastewater services provider. This commitment is further reinforced through our Double Materiality Assessment, which ensures our targets focus on the ESG topics most material to both our stakeholders and our business.

UN Global Compact

In support of the SDGs, we remain a signatory to the UN Global Compact, the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative.

We continue to embed the principles of the Compact across our business. Through this report, we outline how we apply and uphold the Ten Principles across human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption.

As part of this commitment, we report annually in our Annual Report and Accounts on our progress, strengthening transparency, accountability and responsible business practices across our operations and supply chain, and reinforcing our ambition to lead with integrity and build trust with our stakeholders.
