Sewage poster FAQs

Posters are A3 size.

Please note that final designs may vary slightly 

Yes, the posters are free because we want everyone to be able to take part – the more of us who put up these posters in our homes, the more awareness we’ll raise within our communities and the more we’ll get water companies’ attention up and down the country! But if you’re able to donate, it would be great if you could chip in to help pay for posters for people who can’t afford to. Each poster costs us around £1 to make and post. You can make a secure donation here. 

The posters can be recycled domestically.

We’d love to see your posters on display! Please share photos with us: sewagefoiposter@38degrees.org.uk  (and if you do this, we might share your photo on social media, unless you ask us not to)

You can also share your photos on X, formally known as Twitter, using the hashtag #CleanUpThisMess. Based on supporter feedback, we’re no longer using X and instead we’re using Bluesky – a growing alternative platform to X. If you’re already signed up to Bluesky, you can share your photos on there tagging @38degrees.bsky.social and using the hashtag #CleanUpThisMess.

Finally, you can also chip in to help power our campaign to end the scandal of sewage in our seas and rivers in the weeks and months ahead, by chipping in securely here.

We’re working to get posters made for all sewage – sorry water – companies, and will be back in touch when those are ready. In the meantime please consider chipping securely here to help cover the costs of getting more designs made.

Our campaign is committed to holding water companies accountable for their shocking levels of sewage pollution. For too long, these companies have been allowed to dump untreated sewage into our rivers, lakes, and coastal waters, putting public health and the environment at risk.

We are demanding transparency, stricter regulations, and real action to end this reckless behaviour. It’s time for these companies to be held to account, and for our water systems to be cleaned up once and for all. Together, we can push for a future where our waterways are safe, clean, and free from contamination.
