Acorn Safety Services

Acorn Safety Services is a United Kingdom-based, fully independent health and safety consultancy that provides health, safety, CDM (Construction Design and Management) and fire risk compliance services to businesses, property managers and facilities teams across the UK. The company describes itself as a certified Health and Safety Consultancy and positions its advice as impartial, practical and proportionate, aimed at helping clients meet their legal obligations, reduce risk and stay compliant without unnecessary complexity. Its head office is in Northampton, with regional offices in London and Wolverhampton, and it serves clients UK-wide, including the construction industry and many small business sectors. The firm's core service lines include health and safety consultancy, CDM support services, construction safety audits, fire risk assessments, Legionella risk assessments, safety training and retained ongoing compliance support. It markets a free, no-obligation health and safety compliance audit as an entry point for prospective clients, and offers tailored quotes for businesses and property portfolios. Acorn Safety Services emphasises that it is one of the few fully independent health, safety and CDM consultants, meaning it can strategise with clients and recommend solutions from across the market rather than being tied to particular products or suppliers. The company states that its management team brings around 60 years of combined experience. Its team includes specialists such as a Legionella Manager who carries out Legionella risk assessments and water hygiene surveys in line with ACOP L8, HSG 274, HSG 282 and HTM 04-01 guidance, and an Operations Director overseeing service delivery. Acorn Safety Services works across education, commercial, healthcare-adjacent, leisure and residential property types, among others. As a private, independent consultancy rather than a listed company, Acorn Safety Services competes in the UK health and safety compliance market on the basis of accreditation, independence and breadth of service. Its brand identity centres on trusted, accredited compliance support for duty holders, property managers and facilities teams who need to demonstrate that they are managing health, safety and fire risk responsibly.
