Prepare your business for the new fire safety regulations
New fire safety guidance and regulations are now live and relevant for accommodation businesses that take paying guests.
We are running two webinars with industry experts to help support you and provide more information about the new guidance and regulations. The webinars will feature expert speakers:
- Matthew Armer, Head of Fire Risk Assessment Policy and Practice Team at the Home Office,
- Alistair Handyside MBE, Professional Association Of Self Caterers UK (PASC) Chair and
- Paul Bray, Fire Safety Consultant & Fire Risk Assessor
The experts will provide guidance and take questions. Both webinars will be chaired by VisitEngland and the presentations will be recorded to be shared online after the event. The Q&A part of the webinar will not be recorded.
