The Maggie May singer said: "I've spent my life singing to packed arenas and festival crowds, but nothing hits a high note quite like clean water and a decent loo. "They might not be sexy, but they're life-changing. "That's why I've teamed up with WaterAid to bring our funky Boombox Bog to Glastonbury Festival and shine a light on the importance of these everyday essentials that millions still live without. Article continues below "Together, we're creating change that's gonna last forever." Festival-goers will be able to hear some of Sir Rod's hits from the Boombox Bog including Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? and Sailing while also listening to specially recorded water-themed messages from the singer. Jennie York, executive director of communications and fundraising, WaterAid, said: "We're so grateful to Rod for helping share the amazing power of clean water and a decent toilet with the funkiest loo at Glastonbury Festival. "It's a fun and engaging way to celebrate the wonderful things that can happen if everyone has these basic needs met. "Our fantastic volunteers are onsite keeping the water flowing and the toilets gleaming, so Festival-goers can focus on the magic that makes Glastonbury unforgettable. "But when the music stops, we don't. We're bringing people together to help build a world where everyone has the water they need to stay healthy, learn and thrive. Change really does start with water."
