Please note that this event is aimed at those who have little, or no knowledge, of Emergency Preparedness or those looking to cascade the information to others back at their workplace
Places are strictly limited to 12 delegates and so reserve your place now!
This event is designed to raise awareness of potential environmental emergency situations on site, and the actions that need to be taken in the event of a spillage.
Delegates will be offered a FREE onsite environmental review to indentify environmental risks e.g. the storage and handling of materials. This will help businesses protect water courses in their locality and reduce the occurrence of water pollution incidents.
Certificates of attendance will be provided for all attendees.
