Richmond Event Management Ltd

Health and Safety – The Event Safety Shop

We are closely affiliated with our sister company, The Event Safety Shop, a health and safety advice and service consultancy dedicated to the specific needs of the entertainment and events industry. Expertise and knowledge of event management, production logistics, risk assessment & control, licensing and regulatory authority liaison allows our staff and advisors to work with organisers and suppliers to ensure that a safe environment exists at events for both visitors and the workforce.

In the initial planning stages, we can provide health and safety advice on layout and design; fire safety management; emergency evacuation procedures; occupant capacities; procedures for the selection of appropriate contractors; identification of potential hazards and methods of control. During the event and throughout the build and breakdown periods we can provide on-site safety officers, qualified and experienced to help you as the client see the event run smoothly.

Local Authorities and enforcement officers will find in The Event Safety Shop a valuable interface with event organisers and sub-contractors. They can take a lot of the pain out of generating proper management procedures, collating safety documentation and producing and advising on risk assessments. The extensive production background of Event Safety Shop staff guarantees practicable and realistic solutions to event safety management.

Staff and Advisors

The Event Safety Shop staff and its advisors have been recruited from within the event production industry. A wide range of experience allows us to offer advice on technical, electrical, site, structural and personnel safety issues, whilst understanding the time and financial constraints of producing large scale public events. All staff and advisors are affiliated to the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health and are NEBOSH and FAW qualified as a minimum.
