To maintain high standards of fire safety awareness, we recommend regular refresher training. These condensed sessions reinforce key learning points and update staff on any changes to best practices or regulations.
North Devon: Understanding Local Fire Safety Needs
North Devon’s diverse business landscape presents unique fire safety challenges. From historic buildings in Barnstaple’s town centre to modern industrial units in Roundswell Business Park, from coastal hotels in Ilfracombe to rural retreats on Exmoor, each setting requires specific fire safety considerations.
The region’s tourism industry, which welcomes thousands of visitors unfamiliar with local premises, creates additional fire safety responsibilities for hospitality businesses. Our trainers understand these challenges and provide guidance specific to North Devon’s tourism sector.
North Devon’s geographical spread, from the main towns of Barnstaple, Ilfracombe, and South Molton to numerous smaller communities, means some businesses operate in locations with longer emergency service response times. This makes effective staff fire safety training even more crucial for these premises.
The area’s diverse building stock, including many older properties with unique fire safety challenges, requires training that addresses specific structural considerations. Our local knowledge ensures we can provide relevant advice for all types of North Devon properties.
With approximately 94,000 residents spread across North Devon’s 687 square kilometres, and many more visitors during peak seasons, businesses throughout the region rely on our expertise to keep their premises, staff, and customers safe from fire risks.
