Overfilling the kettle, leaving the tap running while brushing teeth, and running the dishwasher or washing machine when it isn't full, are the top ways Brits are wasting water, according to a study.
A poll of 2,000 adults found that more than half (51%) are not sure exactly how much water they are wasting at home.
But nearly a quarter (23%) are unlikely to change their ways as they have a specific daily routine – while one in six (17%) claim they can afford to use as much water as they need.
