“We have employed the services of 1st Choice Safety Training & Consultancy for around 8 years to carry out the Fire Training to all of our staff.
They provided 3 levels of training, Fire Awareness for all staff, Fire Marshal for those tasked with this role and Incident Leader training for our Senior Managers to administer a real situation. All with live fire practical training.
Feedback has always been brilliant, our staff love the fact that our training will be provided by experienced Firefighters meaning our staff can learn from their vast experiences.
We have also utilised 1st Choice for site Fire Risk Assessments and Fire Door Inspections and have helped to implement new fire strategies and plans.
We’d always recommend 1st Choice for your fire training & services and look forward to working with them going forward.”
