Fire Risk Assessments for Licensed Premises

Licensed premises present unique fire safety challenges, including high occupancy, low lighting, loud music, alcohol‑impaired judgement, and cellar risks. This course explains how to identify, evaluate, and control those risks through a structured, suitable, and sufficient fire risk assessment. The course is delivered as a narrated presentation and is suitable as professional CPD for those with responsibility for fire safety.
