| About Us |
| Our
members live and work, predominantly in and around London. They
represent public and private organisations such as central and
local government, commercial and manufacturing companies, in addition
to specialist consultants. Many members are full-time health and safety specialists but the Group also welcomes anyone who has a keen interest in health and safety matters, such as Facilities Managers, Personnel Managers, Quality Managers, etc. To promote the very best occupational health and safety standards, the Group organises monthly meetings from September to May. At the meetings, a guest speaker will present their ideas and experiences on a topic of current interest. This is followed by an opportunity for the audience to reflect and explore the presented concepts. During the year, one of the meetings will involve a visit to a local organisation. This is to gain a practical insight into how they assessed their risks and organised their safety management system. In addition, there is ample opportunity for networking. Our members are usually open to sharing experiences and discussing challenging situations. Membership of the Group can help you keep up to date. The presentations are aimed at introducing new concepts and reviewing pending government regulations. This can help make you aware of what is currently considered to be best practice. Attendance at our meetings may also assist IOSH members in gaining IOSH CPD Credits. There is more information on the IOSH-CPD Page. To join the Group, please complete an Application Form or come along to one of our meetings. Visitors are always most welcome. We are a fully independent group managed by an Executive Committee in accordance with a Constitution. The previous Chairmen, Secretaries, Treasurers and Honorary Members are recorded on the Roll of Honour. We have regular contact with the HSE and the other RoSPA affiliated Groups. This keep us in touch with what is happening in the rest of the country. The Alan Butler Award for Excellence is a scheme run by RoSPA to encourage and reward excellent standards of achievement. Our group won the Best Programme Award in 2001, 2004 and 2005. We would welcome feedback from you, so please tell us what you think!
