Lincolnshire Construction & Property Network November
Monthly construction businesses networking
From sole traders to large housing associations, construction and property businesses come together to talk business at the Lincolnshire Chamber’s Construction Network.
This months Construction and Property Network is being hosting by LIVES (Lincolnshire Integrated Voluntary Emergency Service).
This presentation explores what “safe” means in the context of first aid at work. It covers legal obligations, practical requirements, and best practices to ensure employees have appropriate support in emergencies while keeping businesses compliant and prepared.
LIVES is a Lincolnshire charity providing life-saving emergency care when it matters most. Their volunteer Community First Responders give their time to answer 999 calls in their own communities, arriving first over 70% of the time without blue lights or sirens, just dedication and skill. Alongside them, their commissioned medical teams operate across Lincolnshire, delivering advanced care where it’s needed.
