When they played together, they used to talk about meeting at a World Cup — two close friends dreaming of facing each other on the biggest stage.
Since Diogo Jota’s tragic passing, Andy Robertson has carried that pain with him every day.

And on the night Scotland finally qualify for the 2026 World Cup…
look at the shirts.

A moment full of emotion, sadness, and celebration.
Almost like Diogo is watching from somewhere else.

Last month, our team carried out a fire risk assessment for a local charity. We discovered their alarm system wasn’t working properly—something that could have put lives and vital community services at risk.

We quickly helped them upgrade to a new, fully compliant system. Now their staff and visitors are protected, and everyone has peace of mind!

A fire risk assessment is a process of identifying and evaluating the risks of fire in a building or other premises and taking steps to reduce those risks. It is a legal requirement for many businesses and organizations in the UK and is also good practice for any building or premises where people gather.

The fire risk assessment process typically involves the following steps:

Identify the fire hazards. This includes looking at things like:

The presence of flammable materials
The use of open flames or heat sources
Faulty electrical equipment
Poor housekeeping
Blocked fire exits
Identify people at risk. This includes looking at things like:

The number of people in the building.
The age and mobility of the people in the building.
The presence of any vulnerable people, such as children or people with disabilities.
Evaluate the risks. This involves looking at the likelihood of a fire occurring, and the potential impact of a fire if it does occur.

Take steps to reduce the risks. This may involve implementing measures such as:

Installing fire alarms and fire extinguishers.
Removing or storing flammable materials safely.
Training staff in fire safety.
Developing an emergency plan.
Review and update the fire risk assessment regularly. This is important to ensure that the assessment remains up-to-date and that the measures in place are still effective.

Fire risk assessments can be carried out by a qualified fire safety officer, or by a competent person who has the necessary knowledge and experience. If you are unsure whether you need to carry out a fire risk assessment, or if you need help carrying out one, you should contact your local fire and rescue service.

Here are some additional tips for creating a fire risk assessment:

Be thorough. Take the time to thoroughly inspect your premises and identify all potential fire hazards.
Be realistic. Evaluate the risks based on the actual conditions in your building, not on what you think the risks should be.
Be proactive. Take steps to reduce the risks, even if they seem small.
Be flexible. The fire risk assessment process is ongoing, so be prepared to review and update your assessment as needed.
By following these tips, you can help to keep your building safe from fire.

Just a few thoughts on Fire Risk Assessments, all from "my" findings and nothing else... but I always get asked the same questions!

Fire Risk Assessments – Why do we bother? I've been active in fire safety in some capacity for over 30 years, and I'm frequently asked similar questions about Fire Risk Assessments... · Why do we need them? · Why bother? · It's only for companies to make money. · They never help save lives. ·...

Fire Extinguishers, they always seem like it is a waste of money to install, maintain and service... but did you know that there are 2 uses for them?

Emergency Fire Extinguisher: Anyone can use them on leaving the building in the event of a fire to protect their escape route.

First Aid Fire Appliance: A Fire Marshal/Warden can use them if they have been trained to investigate where the location of the fire maybe.

So make sure you have your extinguishers serviced on an annual basis, make sure they are "always" accessible and make sure your staff are trained, they may just save a life.

We service extinguishers and we provide "Live Fire" training to make sure you have the best chance of getting out of a burning building.
