Why Fire Risk Assessments Matter in Leigh

Fire safety isn’t optional for non-domestic buildings. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, any premises in Leigh used by employees, tenants, or the public must undergo a formal fire risk assessment. Failure to comply can result in fines, enforcement action, or worse.

Many commercial buildings in Leigh were built before modern safety regulations came into effect, making up-to-date assessments essential. If you’re unsure where to start, contact our team for straightforward advice.

History of Fires in Leigh

Leigh has seen its share of fire incidents, both in residential and open land areas. In 2025, a tragic incident in the town centre reinforced the importance of fire safety awareness in modern buildings. Leigh’s proximity to agricultural land has also resulted in larger field fires, requiring extensive emergency response to control the spread.

The area’s fire safety history stretches back to the 19th century, when Leigh Fire Brigade was formed under local governance. Over the decades, dedicated teams have supported the town through station developments and evolving fire response methods. Today, the need for clear risk assessments remains as important as ever, particularly in older or mixed-use buildings common across Leigh.
