Adena Fire Safety Services pushes compliance drive with the ‘FIRESAFE’ Campaign

A new Fire Risk Assessment reminder system and Care Sector Training rollout signal the firm’s continued commitment to business safety and compliance.

Adena Fire Safety Services has taken another bold step in supporting UK businesses with their compliance responsibilities, with two key positive initiatives launched under the company’s ongoing FIRESAFE! campaign — a movement designed to ensure organisations have the tools, knowledge, and confidence to meet their fire safety obligations.

The first major development is the successful launch and roll-out of Adena’s Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) Reminder System — an automated email service developed to help businesses stay on top of their legally required fire risk assessments. Since launching, the system has been met positive feedback from Adena’s existing client base, with a growing number of new organisations also now learning about the service and signing up.

The FRA Reminder System is flexible for individuals or organisations with single or multiple properties/locations that need an up-to-date Fire Risk Assessment. Once registered, businesses (the responsible person) receives three timely reminder emails — sent six weeks, two weeks, and on the due date of their next FRA — ensuring no assessment is overlooked and keeping safety front of mind.

“This tool has been designed to remove the stress and uncertainty for business owners and those responsible in trying to stay compliant,” said Jacqui Critch, spokesperson for Adena Fire. “It’s already making a difference, helping our customers avoid lapses in their fire risk procedures, and ultimately helping to keep workplaces safer.”

Further strengthening its FIRESAFE offering, Adena is also set to launch a specialist Fire Warden and EVAC Chair training programme, specifically tailored to the needs of the care home sector. The training is focused on practical, sector-relevant skills that ensure staff are fully prepared to respond in emergency situations — from the correct use of evacuation chairs to understanding their responsibilities as designated fire wardens.

All training is delivered by current and former Fire Service professionals, giving care homes access to the highest standard of fire safety training. With decades of frontline experience, these professionals bring real-world expertise, credibility, and depth to every session — ensuring staff receive instruction from those who know what it takes to stay safe under pressure.

This new training programme will go live in June, initially targeting care homes across the south coast of the UK, with training venues to be confirmed shortly.
“We are initially targeting our training towards coastal areas where you have a high density of care home facilities. As a sector, it presents unique challenges when it comes to evacuation and fire safety, so it was important for our training team to develop a training program that is perfectly tailored towards the sector,” Jacqui Critch continues. “Our new training is designed to give care home teams the confidence and competence to act quickly, calmly, and correctly. It’s a vital piece in the compliance puzzle — and it saves lives.”

Both launches reflect Adena Fire’s broader commitment to supporting UK businesses with their fire safety responsibilities. The FIRESAFE campaign continues to shine a light on the importance of proactive compliance — not just ticking boxes but genuinely investing in the safety and wellbeing of people and property.
