Emily Hand Joins Envireau Water

March 10, 2022

Envireau Water is thrilled to welcome Emily Hand to the team this week as our Business Support Assistant. Based in our Midlands Office in Melbourne, Derbyshire, Emily will be supporting our Business Operations Manager, Lauren Moore, and working alongside our Marketing Coordinator, Josephine Canning, and Accounts Manager, Tracy Wolsey.

After completing a BSc in Geography from the University of Derby and gaining a first, Emily went on to work in financial services but was keen to find a company where she could combine two interests: the environment and business operations. Joining Envireau Water as a Business Support Assistant allows Emily to pursue a career where she can develop both of these interests!


Emily commented, ‘I’m really excited to join Envireau Water in their Business Support Team. I have only been here a few days, but I can already see that I will have the space to develop and shape my own career path. I’m excited to be working within the environmental sector and supporting the growth of Envireau Water.’


Lauren Moore, Business Operations Manager added, ‘Emily has joined us at a really exciting time. With the experience she has gained from both her previous role and her degree, Emily has the skills we require to support the growth and development of the business. She’s an excellent addition to our team.’

World Day to combat Desertification and Drought 2025

By Rachael Plant • June 17, 2025
Desertification and drought are two of the most pressing environmental challenges of the 21st century. Exacerbated by climate change, the devastating effects of both can be felt across the globe, with an estimated 40% of the world's population impacted by water scarcity events. As global temperatures continue to rise, and severe weather events increase, regions across the globe face the potential for increased frequency and severity of droughts, often progressing rapidly and unexpectedly. As of 29th May this year, a drought was officially declared in parts of the UK, having experienced the driest start to Spring in over 130 years. Whilst the recent rainfall at the start of June has helped to stabilise concerns, uncertainty for the months ahead still remain. How is the UK landscape affected by drought?
