Hello!

My name is Phil. Phil the Bucket. I'm an ordinary plastic bucket, but with a difference! Thanks to my many friends in the Environment Agency, SEPA and the water companies, I'm going on a little tour of Britain during 2007. Many buckets in Africa and Asia have to travel many miles every day in the company of their owners to pick up water. Water that is often dirty too. My friends at WaterAid and I want to put an end to that, and make sure that everyone has clean water within easy reach.

You can read my thoughts on my journey on my blog: philthebucket.blogspot.com

When I travelled from John O'Groats to Land's End in 2005 I raised nearly £10,000 for WaterAid. Please help me top that this time. If you see me on my tour, please put some money in me, or if you miss me, you can donate online here.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: WaterAid will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

All the best

Phil
