    Great, informative course. Tutor was keeping us involved and made sure we understand all material.

    It definitely helped me see Health & Safety from different perspective and realise importance of this sector.

    IOSH Managing Safely Training.

    "I am in no doubt that AW Safety 's continued support has strengthened and developed our business and therefore I would highly recommend them to any company or individual."

    Having considered our quick growth I was concerned about the level of support we were receiving from our Health and Safety company. With that in mind and the fact that I had heard of the excellent support that AW Safety provide to their clients, I made contact with Adam. At our initial meeting we discussed my plans, requirements and expressed my support for continuous improvement in health and safety. He suggested various short term changes including for example, regular site audits and a number of long term changes, including, a training matrix and training plan for Staff and Operatives. From the outset I was very impressed with the extent and flexibility of services provided and therefore we agreed terms to commence.

    Site Audits have been found to be really positive and embraced by both our Management and Operatives.

    As AW Safety work for a wide range of clients in various sectors and various size of businesses it is really positive that they adopt and share new and good practices, including passing them on to support and develop our business further. As they also offer in house training that has been found to be really beneficial.

    I am in no doubt that AW Safety’s continued support has strengthened and developed our business and therefore I would highly recommend them to any company or individual.

    I have had nothing but good reports back from the attendees.

    They were particularly complimentary about your techniques and the way you put things across.

    Certainly if I have any further needs you are on top of my list.

    I think the whole process of getting the course done from start to finish was easy and well managed.

    I am delighted with the support I have received from AW Safety. They have provided first class support for our UK wide engineering business that operates 24/7, 365 on life safety systems.

    All of our queries from navigating complex construction protocols and support with bids and tenders to coordinating nationwide mandatory training was done to a high standard within our time critical environment. I will continue to recommend AW Safety to any business.
