Isaac Regional Council is inviting Isaac households to sign up to Water Night on Thursday, 21 October, as part of National Water Week.

Households are being challenged not to use taps, showers and running water for one night only, from midday to midnight on Thursday, 21 October.

The use of water for hand hygiene and religious reasons is exempt.

Just by registering, Isaac residents will go in the draw to WIN a $50 Shop Isaac gift card.

To go in the draw, visit https://bit.ly/WaterNightCompetition and follow the steps. Registrations can also be submitted by visiting your local library or calling 1300 ISAACS (1300 472 227) and a team member can offer assistance.

During Water Night, Council is encouraging residents to practice ‘water mindfulness’ and to be self-aware when reaching for the taps.

Council will use the opportunity to monitor water consumption by tracking and comparing water usage differences on the night through Council’s free water monitoring service, MiWater. These results will be shared with our communities following Water Week.

The Australian Water Association organises National Water Week, which this year runs from Monday, 18 October to 24 October, to build awareness around the value of water.
