During the last month, we have had use of the Merton Hotel as a training venue for our operational crews.
During this time, we have been able to run Fire Survival Guidance exercises, alongside staff and managers from within the hotel. This has been a fantastic training environment for all of our crews, wholetime and on call, to practice their skills in realistic and challenging conditions.
We would like to thank the Seymour Group and particularly the Merton Hotel for the opportunity and all of their assistance with this.
