Water fountains
UCl is committed to making free drinking water accessible to all students and staff.
°×С½ãÂÛ̳ Estates is increasing the number of water fountains across campus. By adding more fountains, we are hoping to reduce single-use plastic on campus.Â
If you have identified any additional water fountains, or an existing fountain has been removed, please contact us.

Drinking water stickersÂ
°×С½ãÂÛ̳ is proud to have a multinational community. However, it means that not everyone is aware that tap water is safe to drink in the UK.
We have produced stickers to go on sinks and fountains which advertise safe drinking water. Since the Cancer Institute installed these stickers in our pilot, there has been a decrease in plastic water bottle sales by 38.9%.
Please contact us for stickers, and help °×С½ãÂÛ̳ reduce single-use plastics and make drinking water accessible.
Dripping taps
It is estimated that a dripping tap can waste up to 15 litres of water a day. Reporting drips and leaks makes a valuable contribution to combatting water wastage.Â
