To mark the 10th anniversary of World Toilet Day, clean water campaigners Surfers Against Sewage are releasing the results of an undercover ‘Think Before You Flush’ investigation that has seen SAS ‘Secret Shoppers’ scour the high street stores for sanitary items whose packaging does not carry appropriate disposal information - such as the ‘Bag It And Bin It, Don’t Flush It’ icon.
At the start of the bathing season, May the 15th, SAS will be launching a new real time sewage warning system that will tell you exactly when sewage is being discharged into the sea at key locations around the UK.
