Meet Peter the Meter — Water Saving Hero
Southern Water’s metering programme has its very own digital poster boy.
Peter the Meter is the star of a video game for mobile phones, as well as an animated short film. Both provide lots of information and advice on saving water, energy and money in a fun and simple way.
The Peter the Meter application, or ‘app’ for short, can be downloaded for free onto Apple iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch from the iTunes App Store. To ensure you get the best experience from this app, it is recommended that you update your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch with the latest Apple operating system. This can be easily done via the software update tool on iTunes which can be found under the summary tab.
The app contains 11 games including these below.
