Here's what some of our members' told us about the benefits of being part of a branch.

Comment from a member of the North of Scotland Branch:

"Working in the public sector presents many challenges to ensure compliance with health and safety legislation without impacting on the ability to provide an effective service.

The work of the North of Scotland branch complements the day to day business of a health and safety professional such as myself. This is achieved by the effective development of relevant updates, worthwhile presentations critically dictated by members' needs and via the vast array of learning outcomes and opportunities derived from networking with fellow health and safety professionals.

Personally, being a member of such a proactive branch with clear desirable objectives is essential to effectively bridge the gap between theory and practice and aim for continual improvement, thus benefiting myself as an individual and more importantly offering visible business benefits to my organisation". 

Comment from a member of the South Downs Branch:

"I go to South Downs branch meetings because of the camaraderie and fun. I enjoy the group's diverse company, the speakers on so many subjects, networking, sharing of best practice. I do not see how a practitioner can survive and not go".

Comment from a South Downs Branch member - Construction section:

"I think your group is probably the best and most informative of all the meetings I attend. I particularly enjoy the updates from Steve and the general enthusiasm from the attendees. Long may it last - an excellent forum".
