Art Auction in support of Tenby Museum

Published

on

TENBY Museum and Art Gallery opened it’s doors to the public on the 9th September after being closed for eighteen months due to Covid. During this time a new roof and replacement Velux windows were installed as well as extensive internal redecoration carried out.

Being closed for all this time has resulted in a loss of revenue for the museum,  and with this in mind the ‘Friends of Tenby Museum’ are organising an Art Auction on Friday 10th December at the museum to help raise much needed funds

There was a wonderful response from artists who contributed their work in support of the museum including Naomi Tydeman, Sally Green, Tom Sloan, Jon Houser, Meirion Jones, Brian Froud and Louise Burdett to name just a few. All the work will be on display at the museum gallery and can be viewed for free by the public on Thursday to Saturday from 25th November until Friday 10th December.

Doors open to the public at 6.15pm and the auction will start promptly at 7.00pm. Our auctioneer for the night will be the very talented local artist Guy Manning.

All proceeds will go to the Tenby Museum and Art Gallery which is the oldest independent museum in Wales. We appreciate your support and if you can’t make it on the night, you can either leave a bid in a sealed box at the museum or on-line at the museum website www.tenbymuseum.org.uk

Milford Haven man launches security firm after turning his life around

Published

on

Well-known local figure puts experience and determination into new venture

A WELL-KNOWN Milford Haven man who has overcome significant personal challenges is launching a new security business aimed at protecting homes, businesses and events across Pembrokeshire and beyond.

Josh Davies has announced the launch of Blu Haven Security, a new company offering professional security services throughout west Wales and across the UK.

Many readers will already know Josh’s name. In recent years, The Herald has reported on his remarkable personal journey, including the challenges he has faced and the determination he has shown in rebuilding his life.

Now, he is channelling that same drive into a business venture that he hopes will provide reliable, professional and community-focused security services.

Blu Haven Security says it will offer fully licensed and insured security personnel, with services available for businesses, events, venues and private clients. The company is based in Pembrokeshire but intends to operate across the UK.

Speaking about the new venture, Josh said the business has been built on values of trust, professionalism and protecting people.

The company promotes itself as customer-focused, fully compliant and committed to delivering peace of mind for clients around the clock.

For many in Milford Haven, Josh is a familiar face who has earned respect for his resilience and willingness to help others despite facing difficulties of his own. Friends and supporters have described him as someone who has worked hard to create a positive future and become a role model for others looking to turn their lives around.

Launching a business in the security sector is a significant step, requiring licensing, insurance and compliance with strict industry standards. Josh says Blu Haven Security has been established with those requirements at its core.

The launch comes at a time when demand for professional security services continues to grow, particularly for events, retail premises, construction sites and hospitality venues.

Whether protecting local businesses, supporting community events or providing security personnel further afield, Josh hopes Blu Haven Security will become a trusted name across Pembrokeshire.

Anyone interested in learning more about the company’s services can contact Blu Haven Security directly on 07364 171636 or by email at [email protected].

Fire Risk Assessments: A legal duty that saves lives

Published

on

FIRE SAFETY is more than a regulatory requirement; it protects lives, property and businesses. If you manage commercial premises, residential property, a holiday let, care home, school, office or hospitality venue, understanding and managing fire risk is essential.

Under current fire safety legislation, every responsible person must carry out and regularly review a fire risk assessment. The term “responsible person” applies to anyone with a degree of control over premises, including employers, owners, occupiers, landlords, facilities managers and managing agents.

A fire risk assessment identifies potential fire hazards, evaluates who may be at risk, and determines the measures needed to prevent fire and ensure safe evacuation should an emergency occur. You must carry out a fire risk assessment if you are: an employer; the owner or manager of business premises; responsible for a building where people work; visit; or stay; or in charge of common areas in a multi-occupied residential building. There is no minimum number of employees. Even if you’re a sole trader with no staff, you still have a legal duty to assess fire risks if you operate from commercial premises or a shared building.

Employers are required to consider the safety of staff, visitors, contractors and anyone else who may be affected by a fire, including those with additional support needs. They must also provide fire safety information, training and precautions.

At Fire Assessed, our assessors are accredited and on the NFRAR and deliver independent, professional Fire Risk Assessments across Wales and South of England.

Assessments cover a wide range of fire safety considerations, including fire hazards and their control, means of escape, emergency lighting, fire safety signage, firefighting equipment, sprinkler systems, fire door inspections, staff training, hazardous materials, heating installations, smoking arrangements and lightning protection systems.

Fire prevention is always more effective and less costly than dealing with the consequences of a fire. Investing in a professional Fire Risk Assessment not only fulfils your legal obligations but demonstrates a commitment to protecting people, property and business continuity.

Don’t wait for an incident to highlight a risk. Contact Fire Assessed to book your Fire Risk Assessment and ensure your premises remain safe, compliant and prepared. Telephone: 01437 887635.
