The Worshipful Company of Plumbers aims to support and make a difference within the ancient industry of plumbing. We assist and support charities and trainees, partner our industry through affiliations, and work closely with the Lord Mayor and the City of London.
Held for the first time within the World Plumbing Conference (WPC), our Annual Lecture will be delivered by Matthew Griffin, award‑winning futurist and global authority on innovation. The lecture will explore why water security is one of the most critical global challenges and what this means for our profession. Please see the attached flyer for full details
