Water testing in real time is proving to have significant value to public health, reducing risk and providing valuable data on river and sea locations to give accurate reporting on a longer term basis.

We want to make our testing as accessible as possible and therefore we are looking to help communities, groups and businesses with funding and budgeting for buying the test kits. The key is sharing the costs and sharing the data so everyone can help each other. 

We are working with Crowdfunder.co.uk – The UK's largest community fundraising platform to provide a simple and supported way to help you raise money.  There is even match funding available to increase your pot of money raised.  Reward those who give you money by sharing test results with them.

How much should you fundraise?

Here are some examples

£485 Starter pack and additional 5 tests

Getting going and fact finding for your local area. Proving the need for real time testing and gather initial data to make decisions – this provides 10 tests.

£935 Starter Pack plus the launch offer pack of 25 tests

This is 30 tests in total so for example would suit a cold swimming or surf group testing once a week before going in the water for 6 months. Keeps your group or community safe for a key period of time and allows longer term data gathering and sharing of results.

£3335 Starter Pack plus 5 launch offer kits of 25 tests each.

130 tests in total so enough to test a location 5 days a week for 6 months. This is ideal for high water use locations with all kinds of users, surf schools, charities, beachside hospitality or retail or a river used every day by multiple users.

Allows for sharing of daily test results to large communities and for all to benefit. 

The value to businesses looking to use Bactiquick Real Time Water Testing

 Surf schools, coasteering experiences, paddle sports instructors and many more are looking to keep their customers safe by real time testing before they put people in the water. Our tests can keep people safe and can add significant trust and value to your business brand if you are shown to be using them. Equally we understand the worry that red high-risk results may keep people out of the water. What we are finding is that there is a balance because more people are getting into the water because they have seen a green low risk test live when they want to go in (and this can be the same day as an app has reported an incident, it has cleared or the app was out of date). 

Consider the benefit to you in income, brand value, staff wellbeing and less sick days of instructors and the ability to share results with other groups to spread the costs. 

An example: If a surf school added just 50 pence to lesson prices, they can test main locations regularly and have peace of mind and solid data and reassured customers.
