    Our Story

    From consultancy to incorporated practice

    Lanahan Risk Management Services was established as a consultancy in 2014, built on a straightforward principle: no nonsense health, safety and fire services.

    Today LRMS supports SMEs, housing providers, care organisations, education groups and multi-site operators — combining consultancy, fire-risk services and retained competent-person support.
