Our activities
Kraków Water has for years been carrying out activities aimed at cooperation with the residents of Kraków, the local community. They take initiatives to increase access to good water straight from the tap. Join our actions!
Drinking fountains
In May 2017 we proceeded with a new project called "In Kraków good water straight from the tap at your school". Its aim is to equip Kraków schools with devices that provide easy, hygienic and safe access to drinking water from the waterworks system. At the turn of 2017 and 2018 we made drinking fountains available in public utility buildings ("In Kraków good water straight from the tap at your bureau"). In March 2018 we began another stage of our campaign called "In Kraków good water straight from the tap in your hospital".
In restaurants
Within information campaign "In Kraków good water straight from the tap", Kraków Water started an action "In Kraków we drink tap water". The action is addressed to the owners of Kraków restaurants who serve the tap water to their guests and those who intend to do it. We also invite the newly formed restaurants!
For Seniors
Social and educational campaign “Cheers to your health. Senior drink tap water!” was launched on 1 October 2020 as part our campaign - “In Kraków good water straight from the tap”. Its aim is to draw attention to the fact that people aged 60+ need to drink water regularly, because they are at greater risk of dehydration than younger persons.
