The Power of Water:
"Can you imagine going days without safe water to drink, cook with, or clean wounds? For millions caught in disasters or conflict zones, clean water is not a basic right — it’s a desperate need. That’s where AquaBox steps in."
AquaBox’s Mission:
"AquaBox is a volunteer-led charity that sends life-saving water filtration systems and emergency aid to people affected by natural disasters, war, and displacement. Their work transforms lives — turning muddy, contaminated water into safe, drinkable water with the turn of a tap."

Support Matters:
"Access to clean water can be the difference between illness and survival. By supporting AquaBox, you’re not just donating equipment — you’re giving hope, dignity, and health to those who need it most."
"In this post, we’ll explore the incredible work AquaBox does, how it changes lives around the world.
 Aquabox family and community water filters have been distributed around the world to countries suffering from natural and man-made disasters, providing safe drinking water to hundreds of thousands of people.
In addition our Aqua-aid Box, which is tailored to support a family group, contains water purification filters as well as items of humanitarian aid to help with shelter and shelter building, lighting, cooking and feeding, educational development and hygiene.
Natural disasters happen all too often and when they do people are in desperate need of safe drinking water and humanitarian help. We rely entirely on donations and the fundraising activities of our supporters to fund our work and purchase the items which we supply in the aid boxes. Without the generosity of our supporters, we would not be able to continue this work.
Back in 2010 Aquabox started to look for a more sustainable and elegant solution to provide clean drinking water so appealed for assistance. Local engineer and Rotarian John Griffith answered the call by volunteering his world-renowned skills in the field of engineering design. In his garage, John started to create new filter designs to meet the requirements for sustainable and environmentally friendly household water treatment filters capable of fitting into emergency aid boxes. John worked with Wirksworth Rotarian and Aquabox volunteer David Haspel to refine the filter to the version we send out today. John, alongside his wife Gill, went on to set up Grifaid “to relieve hardship, preserve health and support education among people in poverty residing in developing countries.”
