For 30 years, Oswestry-based Warwick Training and Safety has stood as a trusted leader in the field of health and safety training, and mechanical handling equipment training. From humble beginnings to becoming a recognised leader in the industry, our commitment has always been to equip businesses and individuals with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to ensure safe work practices.

Founded by Austen Coleman, James his son joined 10 years later. Over the years, we’ve worked to support organisations to meet their legal obligations, maintaining workplace safety, and building a culture where health and safety is priority.

Our experience covers from construction and manufacturing to logistics and retail. This means we understand the unique challenges businesses face when it comes to safety compliance and workforce training. As a result, we’ve tailored our services to address these needs, ensuring every course delivered is relevant, practical, and impactful.

Health and Safety Training

We believe knowledge is the first line of defence against workplace accidents.

Courses cover a broad spectrum of topics, including:

  • Mechanical handling training
  • Fire safety awareness and fire warden training
  • Manual handling and ergonomics
  • LOLER inspections

Every course is led by one of the experienced instructors who combine technical expertise with real-world knowledge. By using interactive methods and hands-on training, participants don’t just understand the material but also feel confident applying it in their daily roles.

Mechanical Handling Equipment Training

Operating machinery such as forklifts, cranes, and pallet trucks require precision and skill. Without proper training, the risks can be significant — not just to operators but to everyone in the workplace.

Mechanical handling equipment training programs include:

  • Forklift operator training (counterbalance, reach trucks, etc.)
  • Mobile elevating work platform (MEWP) training
  • Overhead crane and hoist operation

These courses are designed to meet industry standards and are delivered by certified instructors with extensive experience in mechanical handling. Training ensures operators are competent, confident, and compliant with safety regulations, reducing the risk of accidents and downtime.
