NCASS have been delivering in-depth technical LPG safety workshops to environmental health officers or a year now, training 250 EHOs from across 80 local authorities. EHOs are taking forward this training to support their event safety initiatives and SAGs. 

They have adapted the LPG safety workshop for EHOs into a workshop for event professionals, focusing on relevant set ups and scenarios and providing key safety advice and guidance. 

This training will help develop event teams to identify unsafe situations and support risk assessment controls.

There will be a chance to ask questions and discuss any real-life scenarios and NCASS will provide CPD certification upon completion of this training.

The training package costs for £150 per person. 

Their comprehensive training package for the events sector includes:

• The online course “ Safe Use of LPG in Mobile and Outdoor Catering “ – an introduction to LPG safety.
