UKATA is pleased to report a highly successful presence at Safety, Health & Wellbeing Live London 2026, held on 1-2 July at Olympia London.
As one of the UK's leading events dedicated to workplace health, safety and wellbeing, SHW Live once again provided an invaluable platform for professionals from across the sector to connect and explore the latest developments shaping the industry. The two-day event welcomed thousands of visitors and featured a comprehensive programme of CPD-accredited content, networking opportunities and an extensive exhibition showcasing innovative products and services.
As Exhibitors, UKATA welcomed a steady flow of visitors to its stand, engaging with health and safety professionals, duty holders, consultants, training providers and organisations seeking to enhance their understanding of asbestos awareness and training standards. The staff had a welcomed visit from UKATA director and Health and Safety Professional, Chris Ivey, who was in attendance at the event. The UKATA team provided guidance on membership opportunities and the importance of maintaining high-quality asbestos training across all sectors.
Speaking about the event, UKATA’s Quality Assurance Manager, Liam Pembleton said:
"Safety, Health & Wellbeing Live continues to be one of the most valuable opportunities for UKATA to engage directly with professionals who are committed to creating safer working environments. The level of interest in asbestos awareness and training standards was extremely encouraging and demonstrates the ongoing importance of education in preventing exposure to asbestos.”

Covering topics ranging from regulatory compliance and occupational health to fire safety and workplace wellbeing, the sessions enabled delegates to gain practical knowledge and engage with leading experts from across the industry.
