Visitors and residents in Hunstanton can now enjoy free, fresh drinking water thanks to a newly installed water fountain at the Cliff Top Car Park.

This project has been made possible by a generous grant from the national marine conservation charity, Sea Changers.

The installation was carried out by the Borough Council of King’s Lynn & West Norfolk, with the aim of promoting sustainability and reducing single-use plastic waste in the popular seaside town.

Cllr Sue Lintern, Cabinet Member for Culture and Events, said:

"This is the second water fountain to be installed in the town, there is already one to be found on Seagate near the Promenade. This is a welcome addition to Hunstanton’s amenities. It not only provides a convenient source of hydration for locals and tourists alike but also supports our commitment to reducing plastic waste and keeping Hunstanton clean."

She added:

" This project is a great example of collaboration between Sea Changers and our Resorts Team, and we’re proud to be part of a movement that encourages environmentally conscious choices."

Helen Webb, Sea-Changers’ Co-Founder said:

"Sea-Changers is thrilled to support the installation of a new fountain at Cliff Top car park in Hunstanton.  We know what a brilliant impact water bottle refill stations have on reducing single-use plastic bottles in coastal areas.  This fountain is sure to be well used by locals and visitors alike and will be a great addition to this beautiful part of Hunstanton.  Well done to everyone involved."

Whether you're enjoying a coastal walk, spending the day at the beach, or simply passing through, you can now refill your bottle and stay refreshed - all while helping protect the environment.
