About Aquila

Health & safety from someone who has worked on the ground

Aquila Health & Safety Consultancy was founded on a simple belief: that health and safety advice should be practical, proportionate and genuinely useful — not just a stack of paperwork that sits in a drawer.

With a background spanning logistics, warehousing and solar installation project management, I understand the real-world pressures that businesses face. I have worked in high-risk environments, managed teams, and dealt with the consequences of when things go wrong. That experience shapes every piece of advice I give.

“I don’t do box-ticking. I help businesses stay genuinely safe, legally compliant, and free to focus on what they do best.”
