This International Women in Engineering Day, we're proud to celebrate RSE Delivery Manager, Kirsty Ennion.

Kirsty has led the refurbishment project of one of the world's largest ceramic membrane treatment plants.

She said, "I have learnt largely by doing and finding my own path throughout my career. What motivates me is seeing clients happy and working on projects that make a difference, but equally in my new role, helping others develop and ensure valuable knowledge isn’t lost".

Her leadership, innovation and commitment to stakeholder collaboration are helping to deliver better water quality and inspiring the next generation of engineers.

RSE was delighted to host the third annual RWGM WaterAid UK Charity Fishing Event at Lake of Menteith Fisheries in Stirlingshire.

Teams of two from RSE, WGM, and Scottish Water took part in both morning and afternoon fishing sessions, competing to land the highest total catch weight. The first fish caught was weighed, with every fish thereafter contributing an additional 2lbs to each team's overall score.

Congratulations to John Scott and Stuart Downie, who secured first place as this year's champions and Alan Aitchison with the heaviest catch of the day at 4.6lbs!

We were especially pleased to host this year's event during WaterAid Week (1st - 5th of June). Forty-five years ago, the UK water industry founded WaterAid, and since then, more than 30 million people have gained access to clean water.

Together, we continue to support WaterAid's mission of creating sustainable water systems and working towards a future where everyone, everywhere has access to clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part in a day on the water and to Lake of Menteith Fisheries for their support of the event. Thanks to your generosity, we've so far raised an incredible total of £1,470 for WaterAid.

We look forward to seeing everyone back again next year!

As Water Saving Week 2026 comes to a close, we’re highlighting how innovation can help protect our precious water sources for the benefit of wildlife.

Through the work of Biomatrix Water floating wetland ecosystems are restoring habitats and bringing biodiversity back to waterways like the River Clyde.

From nesting swans to returning kingfishers and otters, the results speak for themselves and act as a reminder of why we should implement important initiatives to respect and save water.

RSE was proud to sponsor the annual Maggie’s Golf Day held at Cabot Highlands Castle Stuart golf course last Friday. With great weather, the day was a success in support of an incredible cause.

Maggie's Highlands provides vital support to people diagnosed with and living with cancer at any stage. It offers a welcoming space where individuals can meet others, access expert guidance from NHS-trained specialists, and find comfort during challenging times. Maggie’s also supports family and friends, acting as a true refuge for all those affected.

We were delighted to continue our support of this special event and to see it go from strength to strength, with the funds raised from this year’s golf day contributing towards maintaining the invaluable services provided by Maggie's Centres.

A huge well done to the Maggie’s team for organising such a memorable day for the RSE team and all the other golfers that took part, enjoyed the course, and helped make a real difference!

This week marks the start of Water Saving Week, a Waterwise annual campaign that highlights the importance of using water efficiently and responsibly.

With increasing pressure on water systems from climate change, population growth, increased infrastructure, and impermeable surfaces, water resources are being pushed to their limits.

This year’s theme is Protect Water for Wildlife, which highlights the vital connections between water and nature.

RSE plays a direct role in protecting water resources and the environments that depend on them.

Through the design, delivery and operations of water and wastewater solutions, RSE supports:

💧 Protection of watercourses and their habitats

💧 Improved water quality and environmental compliance

💧 Innovation in nature-based solutions for water treatment

For those working in the water industry, Water Saving Week is a key moment to reflect on the role we all play in managing water sustainably across the entire water cycle.
