Clean water is a basic human right
We are very excited at the HQ, now that the Rainwater Harvesters are ready to start collecting rainwater for the children’s village in Rukungiri, Uganda. It is an amazing feeling to have raised the money for this project. Big thank you to the Bridge of Hope Children’s Ministry for getting us involved, and all the hard work that went into this project.
This would not of been possible without everyone who attended the No More Durty Water events. See you at the next party.
Durty 45 Bus took No More Durty Water to the people at Camper Jam. Apart from entertaining with the finest selection of vinyl 45s, their mission was to raise awareness and cash. Sold t-shirts, gave out stickers and leaflets.

Grapevine had its second birthday party in aid of No More Durty Water. It was an amazing party and raised £780 for our next water project. A big thank you to all who attended, and everyone at the Kings.
Thanks to Steve Laming, Gary & Bionic, Micah Stafford, Jimmy Barber, Bexie, and the Funk Brother Deejays for the soundtrack.
A massive thank you for everyone who attended our events over the last year and helped us to raise enough to complete the two Rainwater Harvesters for the children’s village in Uganda. The Bridge of Hope Children’s Ministry have done amazing things so far and really appreciate all your help.
As you can see the local children are very excited to see the water will be available in the Children’s village. They too will have access to the water, as well as the other children that will be living there.

No More Durty Water Fundraiser – DURTY 45 – Little Johnny Russells – Friday April 1st – 8 – 1 am
Today is World Water Day. 350,000 people around the world will be taking part in World Walks For Water. People will walk a symbolic 6km in São Paulo, New Delhi, Cape Town, Lagos, Kampala, Ouagadougou and hundreds of other locations in solidarity with the millions of people who have to walk 6km everyday just to collect water for their basic needs.
The walks target politicians, demanding that they solve the crisis which kills 4000 children every day. A staggering 50,000 people in total will be walking in Uganda, one of the countries most severely affected by the crisis. Walkers in Uganda are calling upon their newly elected politicians to keep promises made in the election campaign on providing safe water and sanitation to constituents.
