About us

Sportsafe UK Ltd was founded in 1997 by Jonathan Neill. During this time Sportsafe has expanded beyond all recognition from a team of two to now more than 95 staff at three locations in Colchester (our head office), Manchester and Scotland with international expansion planned during the next two years to Germany, the Middle East and Australia.

Sportsafe offers installation, inspection, servicing and sales of sports and fitness equipment to more than 12,000 customers from the Shetland Isles to the South Coast in the UK, including private schools, sports centres, care homes and more than 100 county councils and fire, police and NHS authorities.

We are proud to be the only provider across the UK to hold UKAS accreditation to ISO 17020:2012* for sports equipment inspections, ensuring the highest quality inspections for our clients.

*Our accreditation is limited to those activities described on our UKAS Schedule of Accreditation for inspections only.

We strive to put you, our customer at the heart of everything we do. We succeed by delivering quality – whether it’s the equipment we supply or service, the excellence of our inspections or the pride that we take in providing the very best customer service.
