How we Helped.
Oxfam is a global movement of people working together to end the injustice of poverty.

With hundreds of high street shops across the UK, Oxfam not only raises funds for life-changing projects worldwide but also creates welcoming community spaces. Ensuring these stores are safe for staff, volunteers, and the public is a top priority.

The Problem.
Oxfam needed to carry out fire risk assessments across more than 600 retail sites to meet legal obligations and maintain a safe environment.
With such a large and geographically spread estate, consistency, speed, and clarity were essential — as was the ability to act quickly on any urgent issues identified during the assessments.
