Good course, basic Scaffold Inspection (3 day). Good instructor, Steve. Too far for me to drive, but that doesn't reflect on the course.

I recently (Sept 21) attended a 3 day scaffold course here. The centre is well organised with friendly staff and a professional team of instructors who made sure that you have sufficient knowledge to pass the tests.Lunch was provided by "Posh Nosh" and was also very good.The only thing to be aware of is the parking situation. If the centre is busy the car park can fill up quickly meaning that you may have to park some distance away due to DPD taking up most spaces with their fleet of vans so get there early to avoid any hassle.

I recently completed the Basic Scaffold Inspector 3-day course at Safety & Access Ltd. From initial contact to the end of the course, everything was handled smoothly and professionally.I'd recommend the course to anyone who has scaffold structures up on site - it's informative with comprehensive detail about materials, fittings, ties & inspection procedures. Many thanks to instructor Andy Ferguson, an ex scaffolder who really knows his stuff.
