FIRE SAFETY IN CHURCHES AND PLACES OF WORSHIP

Churches, chapels and cathedrals are busy buildings that need specialist fire protection. Allsaved can help with this essential service.

Keeping congregations safe

Every church building is unique and presents its own challenge in terms of fire protection. It’s important that all fire protection equipment is serviced and maintained, and that any actions highlighted in the fire risk assessment are carried out.

It’s a legal requirement to conduct a thorough fire risk assessment in any non-domestic building, which includes places of worship, to ensure the safety of those using the space. This can be carried out by the nominated responsible person for your building, but it’s always advisable to work with expert fire safety consultants to ensure all the potential risks are assessed.

Essential guide to fire safety in churches and religious buildings

If you are responsible for fire safety in your church or diocese, what are the key responsibilities? As an absolute minimum, you must:
