Access to affordable water is a human right. CAP has signed a joint letter with @IndependentAge & other organisations who care about people living on a low income struggling to pay their water bills. We're urging the Secretary of State for a national social tariff for water. šŸ‘€šŸ‘‡

The five-week wait: A devastating delay. Essential expenditures don’t pause for five weeks, people still need to eat and pay their rent.šŸ’”
