We're all made of the same stuff - water.
Paralympic champion Ellie Simmonds, OBE, is showing what she’s made of to support our ‘Made Of The Same Stuff’ campaign, which aims to help end the global water crisis. www.wateraid.or...
Ellie, a WaterAid Ambassador, has visited Uganda to see first-hand what life is like without access to clean water and good sanitation. She said:
“We’re all made of about 60% water; it is a bond we share across the world that is stronger than the kilometres and continents that separate us. Just to survive, we need around 2.4 litres of water every day. However, 663 million people around the world still lack access to this basic human need. “I’ve met families living without safe water, and have seen first-hand the impact it has on their health and education. Having access to clean water and toilets can really transform lives, providing the first step out of poverty. Ending the water and sanitation crisis by 2030 might sound impossible, but together we’re made of the stuff that makes history.”
Through the Made of the Same Stuff appeal, the public can help improve access to clean water and safe sanitation in some of the world’s poorest countries. Find out more about WaterAid’s Made of the Same Stuff appeal at www.wateraid.or....
