The Water Dispenser & Hydration Association is proud to support Just a Drop in our joint objective to provide clean safe water.
Water dispensers have integrated into all aspects of our working and home life from offices to workshops and construction sites to schools and hospitals.
Today employers do not only provide water dispensers as a means of fulfilling their legal duty to provide drinking water in the workplace, but they recognise the benefits derived from good hydration in the productivity and wellbeing of their staff.

Healthy Hydration Chart
There’s one easy way to know if you are properly hydrated – check the colour of your urine against our ‘pee chart’.
Pale is good; dark urine means you could be in need of fluid. And if you are dehydrated, here’s an easy way to rehydrate healthily: head straight to that water dispenser… simple!
Drinking the recommended amount of water improves hydration, which then:
- Lubricates joints

Water Matters Fact Sheets
The British Nutrition Foundation recommends drinking at least 6 – 8 glasses of fluid every day – more if involved in physical work, or are ill.
Nutritionalists and dieticians advise that high quality water, free from flavourings and additives is far more beneficial than tea, coffee, fruit squashes or fizzy drinks. The WHA have identified a number of areas where hydration is key.
