We work to alleviate poverty, by helping others develop and manage groundwater resources...

Groundwater Relief’s vision is of a world where groundwater resources are developed and managed sustainably and fairly for the benefit of all, both present and future generations.

Our mission is to provide groundwater expertise and services to organisations and government agencies responsible for water provision. We help them develop and manage safe and sustainable sources of water. We offer capacity building to ensure vulnerable communities can confidently become custodians of their water resources.

We achieve this by working with our global technical membership of over 450 people from 56 different countries ensuring we engage the highest level of expertise to deliver the best results.

Groundwater Relief, in collaboration with University of Birmingham's MSc hydrogeology department and WJ Drilling, are running a training course to learn about groundwater, water well siting, well design and drilling supervision in a humanitarian or development context.

The course will be run over 3 days within University of Birmingham’s Edgbaston Campus. As part of the course a borehole will be drilled and pump tested on the campus.

Full details about the course and how to book your place can be found here.
