Our Level 3 Award in the Servicing and Maintenance of Portable Fire Extinguishers is running at Telford this week, delivered by Joe.

The course runs across four days, combining technical instruction with practical work on the legislation, standards and best practice that govern the servicing and maintenance of portable extinguishers. Delegates are assessed at the end of the week and leave holding a recognised EAL Level 3 qualification.

This date is fully booked. The next course runs on 6 October at Biggin Hill, with places available through our training diary.

We wish all delegates a successful week of training and assessment.

A reminder to members that the 2026 British Fire Consortium AGM takes place on Friday 2 October at 10:00, at the Macdonald Old England Hotel and Spa in Bowness-on-Windermere.

The AGM is the main event in our calendar and the one occasion each year when the whole membership is in the same room. Alongside the formal business, it is an opportunity to hear the latest industry and Consortium updates, put questions to the board, and spend time with other companies working in the same trade and facing the same pressures.

This year's guest speaker is Professor Paul Christensen, who will be giving an update on lithium-ion battery fires- one of the fastest-moving risk areas the industry is dealing with.

We look forward to welcoming all of our members on the day!

Most people don't leave school planning a career in fire safety. They find their way in because someone already in the trade gave them a start.

That's what our Young Person's Foundation is for. It takes 75% off the cost of a Level 3 qualification for anyone under 25, so a member firm can put a new starter through their Alarm Technician, Extinguisher Technician, Fire Door Inspection or Emergency Lighting training without the financial burden.
