“On behalf of the Board, we would like to take this opportunity to thank Andy for his contributions to the business and Group over the past four and a half years, and to wish him all the best for the future. Our focus remains firmly on our overall performance and delivering a great service for our customers now and in the future.

“As we now look forward to the new business plan period (AMP) in the water sector (2025 – 2030), we remain both excited and optimistic about the opportunities that lie ahead, and look forward to working alongside our professional and trusted South Staffs Water team to deliver our ambitious plan.”
