As an FPA member, you play an important role in shaping the future of fire safety. There are many ways to get involved in current and upcoming FPA guidance and research carried out for insurers, government, regulators, and the wider industry.

These include providing document feedback for consideration by the relevant Working Group at the next cyclical review; inputting in to FPA responses to government/industry consultations (see opposite); surveys and online focus groups on upcoming research projects; and providing topic suggestions for the FPA to research and produce guidance on for members. Keep an eye on FPA emails, our website, and social media for upcoming opportunities to share your expertise.
