    It is: Registered charity numbers 288701 (England and Wales) and SC039479 (Scotland)
    WaterAid works in 17 countries providing water, sanitation and hygiene education to some of the world's poorest people.
    http://www.wateraid.org/uk/

    A lot of the UK water companies support it.

    Right, it's WaterAid, yes I've heard of that, only I didn't follow OP's non-links which weren't obviously WaterAid!
