Directors dealings: United Utilities director picks up some shares

The couple purchased 3,000 shares at €12.44 apiece on 28 March on Tradegate, for a total transaction amount of €37,320.

That was despite the weather-related challenges encountered, especially the high rainfall across the north west of England.
