Having started my own company I was interested in seeing what other Veteran owned companies are out there.

I came across the below link and can't believe how many there are or, that I was even aware of this directory!

Please have a look if there is any service which you require, and support a veteran by using their business.

Are you aware of the significant changes in fire safety legislation?

Whenever your checking in, always check out your means of escape!

Chester hotel fined £45k after fire safety breaches put guests at risk A CHESTER hotel has been fined £45,000 over fire safety breaches which a court heard put guests at risk.

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 come into force today. If you are the Responsible Person (RP) for a residential building that has 2 or more domestic premises in it, you need to ensure you know your responsibilities. If not, get in touch.

Be careful how you keep warm this winter.

Cost of living: Fire risk warning over alternative heating methods People are being told to take extra care if they turn to alternative ways to heat their homes as cost-of-living pressures deepen

Some useful home fire safety advice.

Where do you store your fuel?
Never store fuel next to your open fire or stove to reduce the risk of an accidental house fire.

Whilst conducting a Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) today we came across this unusual final exit door. The building was previously used as a bank and the security/exit mechanism had been left in place. Unfortunately when we tried to open the door there were 2 major issues. 1. It would not open more than an inch due to the new flooring restricting movement. 2. The door only opened inwards and if it had opened fully, would have completely blocked one means of escape to it. Wherever you work, please do one thing, just check you can get out and not just by the way you got in.

Not everyone is aware of the consequences of not meeting your fire safety obligations if you are the responsible person for a business or commercial premise. Large fines are issued, even jail terms in worse case scenarios. Be responsible.

Property management agent pleads guilty to fire safety offences Property management agent and retired Force and Sons estate agent David Force pleaded guilty to three charges of breaches of fire safety. Force, from Dawlish, was ordered to pay full costs to the local authority. The charges relate to Force’s property at 9 Queen Street, which is used for commercia...

What’s wrong here then?

An important topic, what’s your thoughts?

We love a good BBQ as much as the next person, but the arguments against disposable BBQs are really stacking up.

We’ve already asked local authorities to ban the use of BBQs in public parks and open spaces, but now we need to take it a step further…

We appreciate that many Londoners don’t have space to store or use a permanent BBQ, and we don’t want anyone to miss out, but disposable BBQs are too often used in risky locations, and left where they’ll cause harm to wildlife and people.

That’s why we’re calling for a total ban on disposable BBQs following one of the busiest weeks in our history, which saw multiple grass fires cause massive damage. The recent dry spell has left grassland like a tinderbox, and a disposable BBQ is even more of a fire risk in these conditions.

Some shops, including and have already announced they’ll no longer stock disposable BBQs because of their impact on the environment and wildlife.

So if you want to help ban these dangerous BBQs, you can sign the petition set up by Toby Tyler. Toby’s nine-year-old son Will was severely burned when he stood on an extremely hot patch of sand, where a disposable BBQ had been burning many hours earlier.

If you agree that grass fires, environmental damage, and a risk of significant burns isn’t worth a few badly cooked sausages - let’s ditch the disposable BBQ!

We all need some enlightening moments don’t we?

Look at the state of this ⬇️

Seriously?‼️

Someone thought it was...
a. Acceptable to light a barbeque in an area not designed or designated for them to be used in
b. Use a barbeque on an area of dry grassland
c. Leave their rubbish like this for someone else to clean up!

Luckily one of our firefighters spotted this at Cod Beck this morning but it could have been a very different story 🔥

We know our fantastic followers are highly unlikely to be responsible for such recklessness but if you could share our message with others we would really appreciate it!

More sadness to the Grenfell tragedy.

Cladding Panels Failed Fire Tests 13 Years Prior to Grenfell Tragedy Leaked test results suggest the government and construction industry had early evidence of the dangers posed by cladding.
