A cost effective method of rain water harvesting

Sand Dams flyerGreat interest has been shown over the last few months from numerous Clubs in Sand Dams - the cheapest form of rainwater harvesting!  Sand dams are the most cost effective form of rainwater harvesting, the dams hold between two and ten million litres of water and can cost as little as $10 per person for a local water supply for life.

Attached for your information is a flyer showing the basic principle of the sand dam Sand Dams flyer.pdf 
 
We are moving forward at quite a pace and various clubs have confirmed that they wish to go ahead and together build a dam this year.  For a basic dam you need to raise £3,000 and if/when you add DDF and TRF grants this sum can become £9,000/£10,000.  If your club can not raise this sum then several clubs could join together; you can still make a considerable difference in the horn of Africa where they have droughts year upon year.
 
Please confirm if your club is interest in these brilliant structures
 
If you need a speaker on this subject please give one of us a call.  If you would like to discuss a way forward for your club we are here to help
