What we see in Bristol
The Bristol area has a strong aerospace and advanced engineering sector, where machinery, hazardous substances and ISO 45001 are common topics. The city also has a large student population with established HMO areas, a lively harbourside hospitality scene, and plenty of older and converted buildings where fire safety needs a careful, building-specific approach.
