FIRE

Appropriate fire alarm systems will be designed within each proposed building on site, providing thermal
and smoke detection to all villages and communal areas. The triggering of these alarms will result in
appropriate sound alarms across the site and summoning of Local Fire Fighting services via Back to Base
connections. Assembly areas on site will be determined as the first step in evacuation in the event of
triggered fire alarms.

Evacuation Location
ASSEMBLY AREA

In the event of centralised emergencies, such as localised fires within village buildings, evacuation to a
centralised assembly area will be the first step prior to sheltering on site or evacuating the site. The assembly
area will be situated 20m away from any buildings on site.

In the event of an assembly emergency directive being issued for all villages (entire site) via the alarm system
or such the entire site is to evacuate to the Communal Area Assembly Area (Assembly CA - figure 2) and the
24/7 onsite manager with the help of the Group Leaders are to ensure all occupants, staff and visitors are
recorded and a record of such made in a residents and visitors register to be kept in the reception building of
which is directly adjacent to the central hall. In case of the Fire alarms being triggered, Local Fire Fighting
services are automatically summoned to site so Group Leaders and on Site Manager must liaise with Fire
service to determine severity of the situation and further steps required.
