Fire safety training in Skelmersdale.
We deliver fire safety training across Skelmersdale and West Lancashire. Our trainers are based across the region and regularly work on the town's industrial estates and in its schools and care settings.
Skelmersdale was built as a new town in the 1960s, with large industrial estates designed around manufacturing and distribution. Many of our sessions here are for production and warehouse teams.
Fire safety law requires the responsible person to give staff suitable training, and Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service checks this during audits. Training that walks staff through their own escape routes and alarm system is the clearest way to show it has been done properly.
Every session is booked around your business, whether that means a quiet morning, a shift handover or a split session across two days. Call 01244 450 990 to plan training in Skelmersdale.

Practical. Building-specific. Not a box-ticking exercise.
01 — Fire safety law
What the FSO requires of your staff
The legal framework explained in plain English — what the responsible person must do, what staff are required to do, and what happens when obligations are not met.
02 — Fire causes and prevention
How fires start and how to stop them
The ignition triangle, common ignition sources in your specific premises, and the practical prevention measures that reduce the likelihood of a fire starting.
03 — Fire detection and alarm
What the alarm means and what to do
Your specific alarm system, how it activates, what different signals mean, and the immediate action required from staff on hearing the alarm.
04 — Evacuation procedure
Your building's specific escape routes and assembly point
The evacuation procedure for your specific premises — escape routes, assembly point, roll call, and fire marshal responsibilities for each zone or floor.
05 — Fire extinguisher use
Hands-on practical use on a live fire
Every delegate uses a fire extinguisher on a live fire — the only way to build the confidence and muscle memory that makes the difference in a real emergency.
06 — Fire marshal duties
Specific responsibilities for designated marshals
Sweep duties, assembly point management, liaison with the fire service, and the specific responsibilities that designated marshals carry during and after an evacuation.
A new town built for industry
Skelmersdale's industrial estates, including Pimbo and Gillibrands, hold food production, packaging, manufacturing and distribution businesses. Many sites run shifts and have large buildings with long travel distances to exits.
The town's residential areas have schools, care homes and community buildings, and the Concourse is the main shopping centre. That gives us a mix of industrial and community settings.
Food and packaging production
We cover cooking processes, packaging storage and housekeeping on busy production lines.
Distribution and warehousing
We focus on racking fires, charging areas and roll call across large sites.
Community and care settings
Staff learn to support people with limited mobility and account for everyone at the assembly point.
Whatever your premises, we can help. In Skelmersdale we regularly train teams in offices, schools, care homes, hotels, warehouses and HMOs and shared housing.
Around Skelmersdale we also cover Ormskirk, Burscough, Up Holland, Parbold, Aughton and Rainford.

"Great training session. Tim explained everything clearly, kept it engaging and made the information interesting and easy to understand. At the end of the session, Tim showed each of us how to use a fire extinguisher to put out a small fire that he safely started in a metal bucket. I have taken all this feedback to the practice i work in and we have now invited Tim to come and train the whole practice. Highly recommend this company."Julie P. · Google Review
