Protecting Spring 2012

Up date progress on our latest Protected Spring being installed at the moment in Uganda.

The water hole is quite some distance off the road and serves the local community, a health centre and school. .

The people were very willing to carry the materials from the road where the truck will drop them down to the water hole.

The construction of the Protected Spring has now commenced. This time around a lot more digging is required than at the last one.

More photos will be added as the construction continues. Many thanks to the Bridge of Hope Children’s Ministry for identifying and organising our latest spring.

Durty 45 Bus Returns For 2012

The Durty 45 Bus had an amazing first year, going down a storm at CamperJam, Beach Buggin’, Amakuru Vdub and Southsea Bandstand.
The engine has been rebuilt, so the Bus is ready for promoting for No More Durty Water in Summer 2012.

As you can see from the photographs, there was a few changes along the way. The stage had to go, as needed another bus to get it there, which is not very environmental. A professional tent was purchased to go over the whole thing, making Durty 45 Bus fully weather proof and safe.

DATES FOR 2012……More to be Confirmed.

6th – 8th July – CamperJam

2nd – 6th August – V Dub Island
12th August – Beach Buggin

Everyone involved with the Durty 45 Bus, works for free, and even pays for the fuel. There is no cost to the festivals, unless they would like to make a donation to No More Durty Water.

If your interested in the Durty 45 Bus attending your event visit Durty 45 page or email paul@nomoredurtywater.org.

15 Months & £3,365.72

15 months ago we had our first No More Durty Water event at the Wine Vaults in Southsea. The total raised so far is £3,365.72. Which is a great start, and really started to improve peoples lives. This is is just the start.

A massive thank you to everyone who donated money and time to helping us get this project off the ground. We have met some truly amazing people on this journey.

We are off to the Amakuru VDub next weekend in the Durty 45 Bus, to raise even more funds and awareness. Our target is to break the £4000 before October.

We have 65 more ‘Viva Durty 45′ t-shirts for sale, designed by Tristan Savage of Strong Island. A steal at £10, with ALL THE MONEY going to No More Durty Water. This is the last print run of these wonderful tees, so make sure you get one at Amakuru VDub.

Success! The Rainwater Harvesters are now collecting water for the Children’s Village.

Latest Photos From Uganda

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.

Children Love Clean Water


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.
