EASTWOOD PARK TRAINING MARKS ITS 50TH YEAR
As we all settle into another new year, for
training provider Eastwood Park, 2019 will
be more significant than most. The longestablished
engineering and estates & facilities
management training business is celebrating
50 years of technical and estates training
delivery.
On its private 200-acre estate featuring
specialist practical learning facilities and
residential accommodation, Eastwood Park
has hosted trainee engineers, managers and
directors in their formative years, many of
whom are now working in healthcare services
all over the world. The stringent and exceptional
requirements for healthcare have also been
adapted for commercial sectors. So, from routes
that firmly began in healthcare Eastwood Park is
today delivering its courses to organisations in all
sectors worldwide.
Each year, new courses are introduced and in
2019 Eastwood Park is launching an enhanced
fire portfolio, plus new water compliance and
health and safety courses to its latest training
calendar. Its new 2019/2020 course calendar
features scheduled training through to March
2020 and is now available on request.
48 FEBRUARY 2019
In addition, the centre is currently undergoing
a transformation, with the construction of
a new purpose-built training centre, and an
on-going refurbishment of the main residential
accommodation.
John Thatcher, Eastwood Park's CEO is
looking forward to the future: “We are delighted
to be marking our 50th year with 12-months
of significant change and development to
continually improve the expert training
we deliver. We have exciting times ahead
and it's my pleasure to be involved in this
transformation during Eastwood Park's 50th
anniversary year.”

CAN GATHERING DATA REALLY SAVE LIVES?
The modern emergency lighting scheme is becoming intelligent.
Since the tragic events of June 2017, which saw
72 people lose their lives in the fire that engulfed
Grenfell Tower in West London, the area surrounding
building safety and compliance is now, more than
ever before, at the forefront of people’s minds.
Although not defined as a public or commercial
premise, the 24-storey residential tower block
contained many communal areas such as escape routes, assembly points and
walkways which would have required a building risk assessment to help ensure
the safety of the occupants and minimise the risk of fire. Amongst other things,
the risk assessment would have defined the need for evacuation aids such
as the provision of a fire prevention system, sprinkler system and emergency
lighting.
Compliance and emergency lighting: There are a number of health and safety
and construction directives together with legislative material which is published
to ensure the health and safety of building occupants. In the area of fire safety,
the government’s fire regulatory reform order applies, and it is this order that
specifies the need for the initial risk assessment.
The risk assessment: Before embarking on the design, a full risk assessment
must be undertaken to determine the areas in the building which have a
requirement for emergency lighting. This will include escape routes, open areas,
points of emphasis such as locations of essential fire safety equipment and any
areas deemed as high-risk task. Communal areas within residential properties
may only form perhaps 10% of the core area but must still be covered by a full
risk assessment, carried out by a qualified, responsible person.
