Rainwater Saving Community Scheme
At Galmpton: Holy Trinity, the Not listed / not applicable listed building presents an excellent opportunity for implementing a community rainwater harvesting system. The church can significantly reduce its water bills by collecting rainwater from its roof catchment area.
The harvested rainwater can be used for:
- Watering the church garden and grounds
- Flushing toilets in the church hall
- Cleaning church furnishings and floors
- Irrigation for community allotments run by the church
- Emergency water supply for community events
With the church's location in Malborough, Salcombe and South Huish, the average annual rainfall of 600-700mm in the Exeter diocese area makes rainwater harvesting a viable and sustainable solution. The system would help protect the historic fabric of the building by managing water runoff more effectively, while also engaging the local community in sustainable practices.
