Oxford 2016 Gaza Water Plant
Over 100 cyclists joined from around the UK to take part in London or Birmingham to Oxford bike ride and raised funds to build a water plant in Gaza
Ummah Welfare Trust has installed a new water well at Al-Nuesirat which is a poor region of Gaza with a population of approximately 60,000 people. Al- Nuseirat region is located far from water resources causing insufficient hydraulic pressure and quantity of water, especially in summer to supply households with running water. The installation of a new water well in Nuseirat will improve the water and sanitation sector and ensure a continuous supply of water approximately 10,000 residents. The installation includes excavation works, construction, supplying and installing of pipes and electro-mechanical works such as electrical generators and distribution of boards and cables for operation. The water well will be connected to the local water network distribution system at Al-Nuesirat
