PARKING AT THE OLD PRINT WORKS

Your licence agreement does not give you the right to park at The Old Print Works. Loading/unloading and parking for blue badge holders is available. We would encourage you to access the building by walking, cycling or public transport. We have excellent cycle parking facilities and we are served by a very frequent service in the No 50 bus route. The timetable is here.

One parking space is provided for disabled use and one for first time visitors. Other spaces are for unloading and loading and should not be used for parking. If you need to park there is plenty of on street car parking on local roads such as Edward Road just a short walk away. Please try to avoid driving on Fridays as parking can be harder to find because of Friday prayers. 

FIRST AID

All Studio Partners should consider being first aid trained as you are responsible for such provision within your own space.

FIRE SAFETY INFORMATION 

You need to undertake a fire risk assessment (FRA) for your unit. The following template was sent us by the West Midlands Fire Service as a guide to what FRAs should cover. There is other advice available. We have developed this template which is perhaps better suited to The Old Print Works. Please ask Hannah if you have any problems. A copy of our FRA is available FYI.

Within your unit you are required to maintain a suitable fire extinguisher or fire blanket and ensure you are properly trained to use it.

You are responsible for all visitors to your unit. This is both within your unit and ensuring their safe entrance and exit.

You must not leave heaters on unattended. 

We advise you to undertake fire martial training especially where you have visitors or employees working in your unit.

In common areas at The Old Print Works, we have foam or CO2 extinguishers. It can be very dangerous to use the wrong type of extinguisher and in some cases would make the fire considerably worse. Information here will help you to understand which extinguishers to use for different types of fire. Please do not use fire extinguishers or tackle a fire in any way if there is a risk to your life or if you are not confident of your competency to do so. We offer annual fire extinguisher training and would encourage you to take this up. The most important thing is to protect life by getting yourself and others out of the building.
