Staying hydrated is critical for a busy nurse or midwife. Thankfully, if you choose to use a 'Give Me Tap' bottle they'll provide clean drinking water to someone living in Africa for 5 years!

Give me tap works to make a positive impact for a better world. On top of this, by gifting one of these bottles to a busy nurse they can then take their bottle to one of the 800 cafes, bars and restaurants in The Water Network and they will refill the water bottle for free. This way, a busy nurse or midwife can stay hydrated during a busy shift in the most sustainable way possible!
