IMSPA European Pool Safety Award

Does your pool measure up to the highest European Standards BSEN 15288:2008 along with existing British Standard PAS 65. The IMSPA European Pool Safety Award is an initiative which provides a framework for promoting high standards of pool safety in the UK and recognises good practice. It is a voluntary scheme, open to all swimming pools in the UK, including public pools, hotel pools, health and fitness club pools and holiday park facilities.

The full IMSPA European Pool Safety Award includes certification to the level of the BSI publicly available specification PAS 65: The management of public swimming pools - general management code of practice.

Gaining the EPSA is a sure signal to your staff and customers that the pool meets the highest levels of operational quality. Entry is open to both lifeguarded and non-lifeguarded pools. Visit www.imspa.co.uk to download a full information pack and the free IMSPA Pool Managers Help Guide.
