It’s that time of year when we look back to celebrate our achievements and look forward to achieving our mission, vision and continuing to deliver value to our clients.
Although we are 4, Ligtas has a rich and diverse heritage that spans over 30 years of delivering health and safety expertise.
The journey for our consultancy team started in 1992 as National Britannia to the Ligtas you know today. As you can imagine, from those early days, we have learned a lot over the years about the importance of providing our clients with peace of mind, expert help and support when they need it.
As we move forward, we invite you to join us in imagining a world where everyone feels safe and protected. A world where workplaces, homes and public spaces are secure, and people can live their lives without fear.
Our success is multifaceted. Many of our clients have been with us since the beginning of our journey, and we want to thank them for their part in our success today. We are proud of our over 30 years of trust-based relationships with our clients.

Celebrating Our Team
The celebrations wouldn’t be complete without also celebrating our dedicated team and how much of themselves they have given to make this anniversary possible. It is our team’s continuous efforts and loyalty that have helped us turn our vision into a reality.
Because of our team, we can continue to deliver exceptional value. They are the heart and soul of our organisation, embodying a spirit of openness, curiosity, and a passion for tackling challenges head-on. They channel their wealth of knowledge, experience expertise to support one another and provide exceptional service to our clients.
Our people recognise the importance of going beyond the ordinary, ensuring that our services are never a mere checkbox exercise. Every team member deeply cares about health and safety, recognising its significance and impact on individuals, organisations, and communities.
Spotlight On Some Of Our Team
One of our longest-serving team members, Donna McKay, joined the business working in our postroom. During her time here, Donna has achieved her Leadership & Management Level 5 qualification and is now our Head of Operational Planning, Scheduling and Administration.
Donna comments, “We have seen a lot of changes over the years, but the ethos of putting our client at the heart of everything we do has remained.”
Another shining example is Jess Evans, who started in our scheduling team and has since flourished into the role of Business Development Manager. Jess’s progression within the company illustrates how hard work and dedication pay off, opening doors to new opportunities.
These are not the only people who have seen their careers progress. Ligtas has implemented new Heads of Services roles to create an even greater focus on delivering our clients help, support and expert advice.
In addition, as we grow, we want our people to grow with us. That’s why we’ve put a significant emphasis on nurturing talent through our comprehensive career progression programs. The first of these is our Fire Door Inspector Trainee Programme and our Junior Consultant role.
Employees can climb the ladder of success through dedication, hard work, and continuous learning, securing higher-level positions and increased responsibilities.
Careers aside, our team receives great feedback from our clients, including comments like:
What you have to say about us…
“Stephen Best explains in great detail why an action is required and ensures you fully understand the requirements and what is needed to ensure that you can take the risk.”
“Tina Smith is one of the most thorough we have worked with.”
“When it comes to quality assessors, Ryan Sim has set a high bar. His attention to detail, depth of knowledge, and ability to clearly communicate leave a lasting impression, continually exceeding our expectations.”
“We also want to highlight the work of Rod Douglas. His fire warden training session was enthusiastically received and thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended.”
We thank our clients for their kind words and look forward to continuing our work with such a high level of excellence.
Looking toward the future, Managing Director, Shaun Ashmead, says, “Our continued growth is because of people, vision and working to fulfil our strategic aims. We can continue delivering greater value because we have listened to our client’s challenges. We take our role as safety experts seriously, which means our clients know they can rely on us for practical advice to help them meet their obligations.”
Looking Forward To The Future
Great relationships based on trust are what matters. Thank you for sharing our virtual birthday cake and tea, as we look forward to another year of working with you as Ligtas.
