SHE Show 2012
Hilton Blackpool, Lancashire
26 June 2012
The SHE Show is a high profile conference running alongside an exhibition featuring key suppliers and service providers in the fields of safety, health and environment. Now in its fourth year it is fast becoming one of the most successful events of its kind in the SHE arena.
The 2012 programme will again be Chaired by Gerard Forlin QC who will present the police and barrister’s approach to gross negligence in the workplace alongside Detective Inspector Jim Coy of North Wales Police.
Ken Woodward OBE will discuss his workplace accident at Coca-Cola in which he lost his eyesight as well as his sense of taste and smell, followed closely by the perspective of Bob Cameron the former Vice President of Coca-Cola who will talk about the repercussions of the accident both on a personal and professional level.
Other speakers that will take to the stage throughout the day are; David Hitchcock talking about the ageing workforce; Nobby Clark looking at driving safely and the importance of vehicle safety checks and the legal implications, finally drawing to a close with an incredible story of teamwork, courage and self belief from Pete Goss MBE, the first Brit to complete the ‘Vendee Globe’ – a non-stop single-handed round-the-world yacht race.
The focus of the day will be real practical solutions and you will be able to get help and advice on ways to achieve the future challenges that most SHE professionals face in this current climate.
The 2012 event will also see the presentation of the new Inspiring Safety Awards presented by Ken Woodward OBE. The awards represent an exciting opportunity to acknowledge and thank the efforts of those who represent the future direction of the health and safety community.
It will attract hundreds of visitors who need advice and guidance from the experts and who want to see new products and technologies and find out about the latest news on emerging legislation. Delegates are senior professionals across all industry sectors and The SHE Show is also an excellent opportunity to network with likeminded colleagues.
The SHE Show 2012 is sponsored by Kellogg’s and Toyota Motor Manufacturing (UK) Ltd and further information can be found by visiting www.thesheshow-northwest.com. Stand space is from £1,050 plus VAT with delegate registration priced at £95 plus VAT.
Workers Memorial Day
28th April
Last year, following public consultation, the then Labour government agreed to give official recognition to ‘Workers Memorial Day’ which has been marked around the world every year since the 1980’s on 28th April. Further information
As part of its contribution RoSPA, with the help of Sheila Pantry OBE, developed a web listing of all the various memorials we were aware of that had been erected around the country to commemorate those who had died in industrial accidents.
Since last April this listing (visit http://www.sheilapantry.com/memorial/index.html ) has continued to grow.
