Episode 29 – Putting Safety First with Peter Bennett OBE, Tom Jewell and Dr Keith Whitehead
Episode 30
Wednesday, 18 March, 2026
In this episode, we’re taking a look at safety. Even though UK construction sites have some of the strictest regulations in the world, accidents still happen and fatalities still occur. So, can standards be raised and the number of fatalities and non-fatal injuries be reduced? CN’s features editor, Matt Davies, is joined by Peter Bennett OBE, the chair of the No Falls Foundation, Tom Jewell, the co-founder of the Soteria Group and Dr Keith Whitehead, senior consultant with the British Safety Council.
