- Please walk calmly to the exit; please be careful on the stairs. Gather at the fire evacuation point which is located across the road, opposite the building.
- The manager / fire officer(s) will check each room to ensure everyone has evacuated.
- Please wait at the fire evacuation point until the fire officer / manager / Fire Brigade confirms you can leave.
