Ayrshire Hat-Trick is a Winner for Top Up Taps

We've bagged the treble in Ayrshire this week, with three of our bright blue Top Up Taps launching across the area. 

Ayrshire College in Kilmarnock, Low Green Park in Ayr and Prestwick Beach are the latest locations to welcome a tap, allowing people to top up with great-tasting Scottish water and stay hydrated on the go. 

Network Growth

A growing network of water-refill points are popping up all over Scotland as part of Scottish Water’s Your Water Your Life campaign. The campaign is encouraging people to drink more tap water, carry a reusable water bottle when they’re out and about, and help reduce plastic waste. 

“It’s great to be able to offer people of all ages and interests access to fresh water when they’re out and about, and it’s also great that they can play their part in helping to reduce plastic waste by using a refillable water bottle.”

Corporate Affairs Regional Manager

Georgina Reid, Scottish Water’s corporate affairs regional manager in the west, said: “From colleges, parks, beaches and harbours to bustling town centres, we’re making great progress with new taps coming into play at a variety of locations across the west. We now have six Top Up Taps operational across Ayrshire alone. 

“It’s great to be able to offer people of all ages and interests access to fresh water when they’re out and about, and it’s also great that they can play their part in helping to reduce plastic waste by using a refillable water bottle. Drinking water from a refillable bottle is good for your health, it's good for the planet and it's good for your pocket too.”
