DSEAR

Apologies as this is not my forte

Is a DSEAR RA required for plant rooms based on the use of natural gas / gas under pressure / boilers etcetera? I get the impression that this is the case but would like further guidance from those in the know!

Re: Training for Trustees

Thanks ddlh

Re: Training for Trustees

Thanks Andy

I have since found 'roles and responsibilities' training through ROSPA that may be suitable! 2 x 90 minute online sessions over a 48hr period - has anyone had experience of this course?

'Let Them Fall' policy
