Hi,

In 2011 I attended a  H&S for conservators course in Dundee organised by ICON.
You should check their website in case they have more courses in the near future,

Dear all,

Does anyone know what would be the UK equivalent of the 'Health and Safety for Museum Professionals' that was produced by the SPNHC and AIC? This is the link to the publication I'm referring to:

http://www.universityproducts.com/cart.php?m=product_list&c=2097<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=http://www.universityproducts.com/cart.php?m%3Dproduct_list%26c%3D2097&k=diZKtJPqj4jWksRIF4bjkw%3D%3D%0A&r=Fg8uxBA2IYsyw9X3MwZMhg%3D%3D%0A&m=6rCVzMacD2xj1c1mGmYVDetAB6f1y1yoBHVwJomR08U%3D%0A&s=d61950a7b09657d62277a46915f26ed0d847fb21007597133f036b1029332469>

It looks super informative but my concern is that the legal/regulatory info is only US relevant.

Recommendations are appreciated!

Thanks,
