Eastern Area
Welcome to the Eastern Area of the Institute of Water!

Eastern Area
The area covers Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire, Norfolk, Essex, and Suffolk, with the bulk of membership from Anglian Water, Cambridge Water, Essex, and Suffolk Water and associated supply chains.
We currently have the largest number of members and cater to all with a varied events programme – highlights include the Innovation and President’s Days; we are dedicated to members’ professional development with a number of Professional Registration Events and CPD workshops.


Our Committee is Award winning! We have CPD Award winners, Committee Members of the year, we have won the President’s Cup on several occasions and Anglian Water’s CEO, Peter Simpson, won the Allen Bolton Award in 2019 for his work with the IWater.
We’re friendly, open and we encourage people to get involved. If you have any ideas for events or just want to chat about all things IWater, contact us via EasternArea@instituteofwater.org.uk
