Christmas Festivities 2016 – London Pubs, Clubs and Restaurants now is the time to make sure all your Staff knows the premise Fire Safety Emergency Plan!!

It’s the time to celebrate and enjoy the festivities and to make sure that everyone has a fun packed time - all Responsible Persons need to double check their Fire Safety!

If you are having candles, check that they are positioned safely away from any combustible materials such as curtains or cushions. They will be easily knocked over when people are dancing and having fun – it may be best to replace them with LED lights.

Double check the occupancy numbers for your premise and make sure that you don’t squeeze more people in than you are licensed for!

Most importantly – take a little time out to make sure your Staff know the Fire Emergency Plan – they will need to know how to calmly react and quickly in a time of Fire or any other emergency.  You may have carry out a specific Fire Safety Assessment if you have candles.
