Courses we offer
Fire wardens, practical extinguisher use, drills and risk assessment.
Five core fire safety courses, delivered onsite at your premises UK-wide by experienced trainers in our network. Unlike first aid, UK workplace fire safety isn't tied to a single awarding body — what matters is competent training shaped around your building, your hazards and your evacuation plan. SafeServe Group handles the trainer match, booking and admin; you get one contact, one quote and one invoice.

Practical Fire Extinguisher Training
Half-day, hands-on. Live use of real extinguishers on a controlled fire — so when the moment comes, your team's already pulled a pin, aimed a hose and felt the kickback before.
Best for: Fire wardens, any staff who might need to use an extinguisher in an emergency, and teams who want practical hands-on experience rather than just theory.
- The five extinguisher types and what fire class each tackles
- The PASS technique (Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep)
- Supervised live extinguisher use on a controlled fire
- When NOT to fight a fire — evacuation decision-making

Evacuation Drill Coordination
Half-day workshop for the people running drills. How to plan a meaningful drill (not just a fire-bell-and-yawn), marshal it, debrief honestly, document the findings and feed them into your fire safety plan.
