"Katherine and I have worked with Stephen for approximately eighteen months now and he is our first choice when it comes to all matters of health and safety. Not only that, he is our first choice for a health and safety provider to our customers. His straight forward now nonsense approach mirrors our own and whilst his advice is not always the advice a client might want to hear, it is the right advice to protect their business and keep them working safely. Unlike most he is active in protecting his client’s businesses as if it were his own."
