About this item

The impact of our tanks will stop you in your tracks. In emergencies, we can rush them to the epicentre to provide clean, safe water. In temporary camps, huge versions, holding tens of thousands of litres, can supply water to hundreds of families. And installing a tank in a village school can help make attendance rocket.

Delivery & returns

All gifts are sent by 1st class post within 3 working days of when you place your order.  An optional delivery contribution of £1.70  per order for deliveries within the UK will be suggested during checkout, to help us cover costs. You can pay the suggested amount, increase or decrease your contribution, or pay nothing at all. You choose.

If you're in a hurry you can also send a gift E-card, at no extra cost, which will be sent as soon as you place your order. 

Please note that Oxfam Unwrapped gifts count as a donation, so our no quibble returns policy does not apply, and under Charity Commission rules, we are unable to give you a refund.

You can find out more about delivery and returns in our help section.

Giving this gift

When you buy an Oxfam Unwrapped gift you can be confident that the real gift will be sent to where it's needed most.

Water tank

This gift in action

It never rains, but it pours – literally for the people of Niamey, Niger. After weeks of praying for rain they experienced some of the heaviest downpours for decades and the subsequent flooding destroyed homes and crops less than two months before harvest.

Oxfam was there to help thousands of people made homeless, including supplying clean water 24/7 at various relocation sites such as schools and community buildings.

Thanks to Oxfam's experience in providing water and sanitation in emergency situations, we have a range of adaptable water tanks that can be rushed to where they are required to meet the needs of people on the ground. Tanks range in size from massive steel constructions through to flexible rubber water bladders.

Transportable tanks like this one can be set up within three hours and can hold around 90,000 litres of safe drinking water. They can be regularly topped up by water tanker deliveries or store water pumped from sources, sometimes kilometres away.
