Your safety matters, you deserve to be supported by people who care about you and will help you save money whilst retaining quality.
Fire Risk Assessments
You are the responsible person for your building, that's not the landlord, its the person in charge of the activities in the building. If you employ more than 5 people then by Law you have to have a fire risk assessment (FRA) carried out. And review it regularly.
You have two options:
Carry this out yourself
Employ a Specialist i.e. WFP
Pro's
If you deem yourself competent, you can do it today with free guidance available from the gov.uk website.

It will be time-consuming, and you'll pay for the FRA in your time. Be prepared to take full responsibility.
Pro's
If you choose your Fire Risk Assessor wisely, you can get this organised quickly and receive some practical advice on top of the assessment.
