IOSH Event Safety Training

As founder of www.EventSafetyTraining.uk, I deliver IOSH-approved event safety training and specialist workshops designed specifically for the events industry.

With over 25 years of experience across events, safety and education, my focus is on providing training that goes beyond theory, equipping event professionals with practical skills, defensible decision-making, and the confidence to manage risk, teams and complex live environments.

I work with event organisers, venues, agencies, suppliers and production teams who need training that reflects the realities of live events: tight timelines, temporary structures, live audiences, multiple stakeholders and high-pressure decision making.

NOW IS THE TIME TO UPSKILL, TRAIN & REFRESH > >
Are you confident in your whole team’s ability to identify hazards, evaluate risk, decide on control measures and keep you, your clients, your business and your customers safe?

Our bespoke One-Day Working Safely in Events course will take you and your team through the key pieces of health and safety legislation, understanding their own responsibilities when it comes to safety and health, show them how to conduct thorough risk assessments and manage risk on site at events. All delivered in the context of your business and your business activity.

The course can be delivered via Zoom in either two 3 hour blocks, or four 90 min sessions. Each delegate will receive a printed workbook through the post and, on passing the assessment, an IOSH certificate.
