Evacuation Procedures for Disabled Persons:
Every individual who has a disability which may affect their ability to recognise that an emergency is taking place or to evacuate a building unaided needs to have a Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan drawn up (PEEP). See your course leader or line manager if you fall into this category
Fire Wardens:
To enable a fast and efficient evacuation of University Buildings, the University uses fire wardens to assist in the process. Fire Wardens are not trained to be fire fighters. Their main function is to assist the progress of the evacuation and to report its progress to the Building Evacuation Controller.
