Forthcoming Severn Wye website

We are aware that this website has been quieter than usual recently. That certainly does not reflect on life at Severn Wye, where we are busier than ever taking action to drive sustainable energy. The reason is that we have been busy building an all-new website, which we hope to launch before the end of the year. We look forward to sharing a whole new way of engaging with Severn Wye soon.
