In the case of an emergency, please adhere to the following process:
Dial 999 for the emergency service required and await assistance. Please also make sure that you inform the Techspace community team of any emergency, so we can facilitate access or assist with first aid requirements. First aid kits can be found in the kitchen.
We will coordinate with your team to arrange for designated fire marshals and first aid officers to liaise with the Techspace Community Team in any emergency. Please note that it is mandatory for each company in the building to possess a designated first aider and fire warden. We do offer member training courses for these twice a year. Please contact the Community Team if you would like more information on these.
Please familiarise yourself with the building layout, the emergency and fire procedures for the premises, locations of alarm buttons, extinguishers, fire alarm alerts and comply with any fire drills and fire procedure tests. You should only use the main entrance for entering and exiting the premises. The emergency exits are for emergency use only and are alarmed.
Techspace’s Fire Assembly Point is Mark Square.
Our insurance policies do not cover your equipment or contents. It is your responsibility to take out contents insurance for your own workspace equipment. We recommend using one of our partners, who offer a discount for Techspace members.
Techspace Clifton Street is set up with intruder alarms that activate when any attempted forced entry is performed. Irrespective of the time you enter or leave the workspace no action is required to set or unset the alarm, but please remember to make sure the doors are closed behind you and that you do not prop any external door open. This will prevent the alarms from being triggered in error and the risk of you incurring a callout charge from our monitoring company.
The access points to your workspace are covered by CCTV cameras that operate 24hrs a day and retain recordings for 30 days. In addition, your workspace will be checked by a security guard at least once every day of the week, typically close to midnight on weekdays and in the evening on weekends.
If you would like to discuss further enhancing security at your workspace, please get in touch.
