Horton Hears... all about water sector's 40 year history, past, present and future

For 40 years, Future Water (formerly SBWWI) has been shaped by the voices at the heart of UK water - its members.

In this session, Paul Horton draws on those voices to take a deep dive into four decades of Future Water and the wider UK water sector, using the past to inform what's next.

Tracing the sector's evolution — from privatisation through successive AMP cycles — this session unpacks how procurement, risk allocation, and investment priorities have shifted, and what that means for suppliers positioning for AMP8 and beyond.
