The Challenge

Modernising hydration

As members increasingly moved away from traditional drinking fountains and towards reusable water bottles, Odyssey wanted to modernise its hydration facilities. Key requirements included:

A cleaner and more hygienic alternative to traditional water fountains
Faster, more convenient bottle refilling for members
Improved access to drinking water throughout the club
A hydration solution for outdoor tennis players
Support for the club’s commitment to reducing single-use plastic

The Thirsty Work Solution

Thirsty Work was chosen to provide a modern water refill solution that would improve the member experience while supporting Odyssey’s wider sustainability goals. Thirsty Work supported Odyssey Health Club throughout the entire process, providing:

01
Expert Site Survey

A site visit was arranged from the outset to understand Odyssey’s requirements and identify the best locations for the new water systems.
02
Modern Refill Stations

Convenient and hygienic bottle-filling facilities were installed, allowing members to quickly refill their reusable bottles throughout their visit.
03
Outdoor Hydration

A dedicated solution was provided for the tennis facilities, allowing players to access drinking water without having to return inside the main club.
04
Seamless Installation

The new equipment was installed efficiently with no disruption to the day-to-day operation of the health club.
05
Sustainability Support

The new refill facilities encourage members to choose reusable bottles rather than purchasing disposable single-use plastic bottles.
06
Measurable Impact

Integrated bottle counters allow the club to monitor usage and see the environmental impact of its refill stations.
