Our PAT Testing Process

We offer three levels of fire safety training to match your team’s responsibilities:

Ideal for general staff who may need to use a fire extinguisher in an emergency. This course covers the different types of fire extinguishers, what each is used for, and how to operate them safely. The session includes a live-fire demonstration where participants get hands-on experience using extinguishers in a controlled setting. 

Suitable for all staff and aimed at improving overall fire safety understanding. This course explains fire prevention practices, what to do if a fire breaks out, how to raise the alarm, and how to evacuate the premises calmly and safely. It also includes practical extinguisher training and interactive discussion customised to your workplace. 

Designed for staff appointed as Fire Wardens or Marshals. It covers everything from legal responsibilities to how to lead evacuations, check fire exits, coordinate with emergency services, and support fire safety measures day to day.
