For UK Charities
Health and safety software for charities
Featherstone Safety Hub helps UK charities and voluntary organisations meet their health and safety duties without the complexity or cost of systems built for corporate environments. Manage risk assessments across your activities, track training for staff and volunteers, log incidents, maintain evidence for trustees and funders, and demonstrate the safe management that good governance requires.
Built by NEBOSH-qualified practitioners, from £29 per month, with a 14-day free trial and no long-term contract.
Charities have the same legal duties
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 applies to charities as to any other employer. Trustees, as the responsible persons, carry legal and governance responsibilities for health and safety alongside their other duties. Whether the charity runs office activities, community services, retail shops, events or outdoor programmes, the risks need to be assessed, controlled and evidenced.
The challenge for charities is doing this effectively within budget, often with limited administrative capacity and a mix of staff and volunteers. Featherstone Safety Hub is built for exactly this situation: a complete system at an affordable price that a non-specialist can run.
- Risk assessments: cover office, activities, events, outreach, retail and other operations.
- Volunteer training: track induction, mandatory and role-specific training for staff and volunteers alike.
- Incident register: log accidents and near misses with RIDDOR screening.
- Evidence library: keep certificates and records organised for trustee and funder oversight.
- Fire checks: log alarm tests, extinguisher checks and drills, timestamped.
Trustee oversight and funder expectations
Charity trustees are responsible for ensuring their organisation operates safely. Funders and grant bodies increasingly ask for evidence of health and safety management as part of grant applications and reporting. Keeping risk assessments, training records and incident data in one organised system means you can produce this evidence clearly and quickly, supporting both trustee oversight and funder confidence.
The monthly review function lets trustees or senior staff review the current compliance position and close out outstanding actions, creating a clear audit trail of governance in action.
Proportionate and affordable
Many charity-focused health and safety services are either too expensive, too complex, or both. Featherstone Safety Hub is transparently priced from £29 per month, with no long-term contract, and is designed to be run by a manager or administrator rather than a safety specialist. You can trial it free for 14 days.
