    CPD Seminar – Sustainable Lighting For Railway Stations Of The Future

    UPDATED MAY 2026

    This CPD outlines the latest sustainable lighting requirements for the UK rail network, driven by the transition to Great British Railways (GBR) and the forthcoming update of RSSB standard RIS‑7702. It shows how evolving user‑focused design and strengthened sustainability targets are reshaping lighting across stations and platforms.

    The session explores GBR’s “4S” framework, Sustainability, Satisfaction, Safety and Stewardship—and how these principles guide lighting strategy, product selection and whole‑life performance. Key topics include circular‑economy luminaire design, reducing embodied carbon, achieving a 30‑year design life, glare control and improving operational safety.

    The CPD concludes with best‑practice guidance for delivering inclusive, safe and sustainable station environments aligned with GBR’s expectations.

    CPD Seminar – Robust Lighting

    This CIBSE accredited CPD seminar looks at how challenging environments are illuminated. We examine vandal resistance, adverse weather conditions, product construction, LED lighting, and sustainable product design.

    Product standards are explained, including IK (BS EN 62262) and IP (BS EN60529) ratings. We identify the manufacturing processes used to ensure luminaire durability.

    Finally, we will look at some challenging applications in detail. We focus on transport, community and public, custodial and secure healthcare.

    CPD Seminar – Emergency Lighting For Challenging Environments: Updated for BS 5266 1:2025

    UPDATED APRIL 2026

    This CIBSE accredited CPD explains why emergency lighting is essential, who is responsible under UK fire safety law, and how to design, verify and maintain compliant systems in demanding environments.

    We examine BS 5266-1-2025, including its expanded scope covering escape routes, local area and standby lighting. We highlight the strengthened requirement for testing, documentation and 5- year photometric verification, along with wiring resilience measures such as two independent circuits for high-risk areas.

    Participants will learn application definitions, signage requirements, points of emphasis, and the latest performance criteria for escape routes and open areas. We also cover battery technologies, automatic testing solutions (Self Test/DALI) and how to design for maintainability. The session concludes with practical examples of emergency lighting requirements across social housing, custodial, secure healthcare and rail applications.

    CPD Seminar – Lighting: The Retrofit Revolution

    UPDATED JUNE 2026

    This CPD examines the benefits and challenges of retrofitting luminaires with the latest LED technology.

    The seminar examines the transition from legacy lighting technologies to modern LED solutions, highlighting not only improvements in efficacy but also fundamental changes in photometric performance, light distribution and controllability. It considers how retrofit can extend asset life, reduce capital expenditure and minimise disruption.

    A key focus is placed on maintaining lighting quality, safety and design intent. Practical risks are assessed including thermal management, material compatibility and the effects of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on LED longevity.

    The seminar outlines the regulatory and compliance framework governing retrofit, including CE responsibilities and the implications of modifying existing products. Finally, the introduction of BS 8887 221:2025 is explored as a benchmark for best practice, reinforcing retrofit as a controlled engineering and remanufacturing process.

    CPD Seminar – Light That Changes Lives in Secure Healthcare Environments

    Lighting plays a critical role in secure healthcare environments, influencing not only visual performance but also wellbeing, safety, recovery and operational resilience.

    This CIBSE accredited CPD explores how thoughtful lighting design can support circadian rhythms, improve mood and behaviour, and contribute to safer, calmer environments for both service users and staff. It examines the balance between therapeutic needs and the stringent safety requirements of secure health settings, including ligature resistance.

    The session provides an overview of key considerations such as luminaire design, maintenance strategies, relevant standards, testing guidance and the need for a sustainable long-life design. The CPD concludes with a discussion of several real‑world applications.
