Scottish Water is to host its Annual Consultative Meeting next week in Glasgow.

The event will detail the progression of Scottish Water's current six-year £3.9 billion investment programme.

Members of its Board will be on hand to meet customers and answer questions as the public utility reviews its performance in the past year.

It will take place at The Studio conference centre, Hope Street, on 28 August from 5.30pm until 7pm.

Speaking ahead of the event, Scottish Water's Chair, Lady Susan Rice, said: "The quality of drinking water received by Scottish Water customers through their taps continues to be very high.

"And the average household charges remain among the lowest in Great Britain - £42 lower per year than the average household charge in England and Wales.

"We are determined to maintain the pace of improvement so that we continue to be among the UK's top-performing and most trusted utilities."

Lady Rice added: "We have put customers at the heart of our future planning and our Annual Consultative Meeting – which is being held this year in the centre of Glasgow – is an excellent opportunity to meet many of those we serve and share our plans for the years ahead."
