• Across the South West area, Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service attends incidents in Longbridge Deverill's non-domestic premises — a village or rural community where mixed-use and multi-occupied buildings are common.

• Retail, hospitality and night-time-economy venues
• Industrial units, warehouses and manufacturing sites
• Care homes, healthcare and education premises

Common Mistakes in Longbridge Deverill

• the responsible person assuming Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service will inspect on their behalf — the duty to hold a suitable and sufficient assessment sits with the responsible person, not the fire and rescue service.
• Forgetting that common parts (stairs, corridors, shared kitchens) require an FRA under Article 9 of the RRO 2005 even where rooms are let individually
• Mixed-use buildings (shop below, flats above) where the commercial and residential responsible persons fail to co-ordinate
• Buildings over 11m where monthly flat entrance-door checks are a legal duty under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022
• Not reviewing the assessment after refurbishment, change of use, or new equipment
