Case Study
Hollowford Centre
Paul Booker
Company Introduction
Hollowford Centre is a charitable organisation based in the Peak District, providing residential experiences and outdoor learning opportunities for young people under the age of 25. With accommodation for up to 144 guests across 29 en-suite bedrooms, the centre has been operating for over 60 years, continually adapting to changing facilities, legislation, and industry best practices.
The Challenge
When Legionella compliance first became a recognised requirement, Hollowford Centre required specialist support to ensure its water systems were managed safely and in accordance with evolving guidance. As water hygiene was not an area of internal expertise, the organisation needed a trusted partner capable of providing both technical knowledge and long-term support.
Following their research into potential providers, Hollowford Centre selected SAS Water to help establish and maintain an effective approach to Legionella management and compliance.
