We haven’t always had sewage systems to take away your toilet paper- people used to have to use really unusual things to wipe their bottoms….yuk! Come and find out what ingenious items people have used to wipe their bottoms in the past.
Zone B - We are Severn Trent
It takes a whole team of Severn Trent superstars to keep your water flowing, working tirelessly day and night, every day of the year to make sure water gets to you and is taken away.
Did you know we have over 147,00km of pipes (waste and fresh water) that need to be looked after- that’s enough to go around the world 23 times!
