Responsible Water Hygiene & Compliance Partner

Managed Water Services is a specialist provider of water hygiene services, Legionella risk assessment UK programmes, and ACoP L8 compliance management for organisations that require safe, compliant water systems.

We support NHS trusts, local authorities, housing associations, education providers, care environments and commercial organisations where regulatory compliance, governance and responsible procurement are critical.

Our services help organisations maintain safe water systems while meeting their obligations under ACoP L8, HSG274 guidance and wider water safety management requirements.

Alongside delivering professional Legionella control services and water hygiene compliance programmes, we operate as a responsible and transparent supplier aligned with modern ESG, sustainability and procurement expectations.

Climate Responsibility Built Into Every Project

Managed Water Services believes that water safety compliance and environmental responsibility should work together.

For every new project secured, we allocate 0.2% of total project revenue (not profit) to verified climate initiatives through our partnership with Ecologi.

This investment supports:

Gold Standard carbon offset projects

Global reforestation programmes

Verified climate-positive environmental initiatives

Each contract contributes to a growing cluster within the Managed Water Services Forest, linking our water hygiene compliance services directly to measurable climate action.

By linking our contribution to project revenue rather than margin, climate investment becomes a built-in part of service delivery rather than an optional initiative.

This model helps organisations strengthen:
