Record number of illegal sewage spills in Windermere last year

Sewage spilled illegally into Britain’s largest lake on a record number of days last year, an analysis of water company data by campaigners suggests.
The analysis, which the BBC had exclusive access to, used United Utilities operational data to establish when the company was discharging sewage into Windermere when it should by law have been treating some of it.
The campaigners from Windrush Against Sewage Pollution (WASP) and Save Windermere identified 140 illegal spill days in 2024, more than in any of the three previous years.
United Utilities told BBC News that the campaigners’ findings were “inaccurate” and some of the data “erroneous”.
The company declined to put in writing, despite repeated requests, any specific examples of mistakes or omissions.
