ETHICAL CATERING

Life water making a Difference

Life Water bought on campus funds drinking water wells in area’s of the world that would otherwise haveno access. Through partnering with Life Water and drop4drop, Gather & Gather have funded the construction of 20 clear water projects, changing the lives of over 18,000 people. Having a clean provision of water now means that the communities no longer have to face the threat of water-borne illnesses and can focus on their livelihoods, education and family life.

As part of its commitment to using sustainable and Fairtrade food, Food at Brookes pledged to sell at least one charitable water across the University’s campuses. For every bottle of Life Water sold, the ethical bottled water company, via their partner charity Drop4Drop, funds the delivery of 1000 litres of clean drinking water to communities in need around the world.
