Online Workshop — 18 February 2027, 10:00–11:30 GMT
Construction Fire Safety Workshop
A free 90-minute workshop for contractors, site managers, and homeowners commissioning renovation works. Covers the full range of fire safety controls required during construction: hot work permits, materials management, temporary detection, compartmentation, fire stopping, and insurance compliance.
Why February
The spring construction season typically begins in March–April. This workshop is timed for February — when contractors and homeowners are finalising plans and method statements for spring projects. Fire safety measures are most effective when built into the project plan from the start, not added after a near-miss.
