FOLLOWING your story about the girl refused water at KFC (April 1) I thought your readers might be interested in these statistics:
Water from the tap is 500 times cheaper than bottled water.
Two tonnes of tap water costs the same as a high street coffee latte.
99.95 per cent of water from Anglian Water passes stringent water quality tests.
Producing the plastic needed for a one litre plastic bottle uses seven litres of water.
Anglian Water urges restaurants always to have tap water available for customers. Water in the UK is among the best quality of water anywhere in the world, and the water supplied by Anglian Water is no exception. Water samples are taken every day of every year and then examined at our laboratory in Huntingdon.
