Water for Life

Our Water for Life website provides stories and information about the water that sustains our growing city. The website was launched in 2020 when Auckland was in the grips of the region's worst drought on record. While our total water storage is now stable, we still need everyone to continue doing their bit to save water. That’s where Water for Life comes in. In this section of our information hub, you'll learn tips and tricks to advance your water saving journey.
