About this Event
The property looks right. The numbers look promising. But what could you be missing?
A fire risk assessment that fails to stand up to scrutiny. A service with a worrying inspection history. A property purchase that needs more investigation before you commit.
Join Care Property Hub in Birmingham for an evening of practical insights and in-person networking, exploring the questions landlords, investors and care providers should ask before making their next move.
Dan Quinn | Managing Director, Fire Scene Group
Fire Risk Assessments: What the Law Requires, and Where Care Property Operators Get Caught Out

- The role of the Responsible Person and the requirements of the Fire Safety Order.
- What makes a fire risk assessment “suitable and sufficient”.
- Common failings that lead to enforcement.
- How to question recommendations and judge whether an assessment would stand up to scrutiny.
