| HSfB Prize Draw 2008/2009 - www.prizedraw.healthandsafetytips.co.uk |
After a long wait, it's finally here! The first draw of the HSfB Prize Draw will take place on Monday 3 November 2008!
That's right, the FIRST draw will take place very soon!
Rather than have one big prize draw like we did the last time around, we will be giving away at least one fantastic prize each month until this time next year.
What's the catch? Absolutely no catch! It is absolutely free to enter, in fact, if you are reading this newsletter from your inbox you are already entered!
Entry to the prize draw is very simple, just register for this newsletter and you are in with a chance of winning a fantastic prize donated by various organisations and individuals.
This section of the newsletter will be dedicated to publicising the winners of each draw and to give you details of the next prize up for grabs.
Our brand new dedicated prize draw website will also give you details of winners, prizes, terms and conditions and the prize draw schedule itself. So, check out the HSfB Prize Draw 2008/2009 website for your chance to win - www.prizedraw.healthandsafetytips.co.uk
The first prize up for grabs on Monday 3 November is 6 places on a one day manual handling train the trainer course which will be held in Central Scotland (dates and venue to be confirmed when all 6 places have been accepted by winners).

| HSfB Site Audit Begins and Privacy Policy Updated |
HSfB Site Audit Begins
Since HSfB was created in 2004, there have been many changes to UK health and safety legislation. This means that one or two of the freely available download materials on the site have become a little out-dated and need 'tweaked' in order to bring them back into line with the changes over the years. Although all of the materials on the site are taken 'as is', inaccuracies or not, a site audit has begun for the majority of materials available for download.
This huge task has been taken on by a group of discussion forum volunteers - HSfB Audit Team. You can view the progress of the audit in the new dedicated forum section here - HSfB Site Audit.
The benefit to you is that our downloads stay as up-to-date as can be reasonably expected from a site with hundreds of contributors. Something which has never been done before on any site like ours!
If you would like to be part of the audit team, please have a read here for instructions.
