Peter Cowup is in his 32nd year of service with London Fire Brigade and is currently
Deputy Assistant Commissioner, Acting Head of Operational Procedures. Peter’s role
is to provide leadership, guidance and support to a department that holds the policy
lead for LFB's firefighting, rescue, hazardous materials, respiratory protective
equipment and incident communications capabilities. In practise, the department
produces the risk assessments, policies and procedures and training and equipment
specifications which underpin and help to deliver safe and effective operational
response in these areas. Peter also represents LFB in several national forums, such as
USAR and the CLG/CFRA working group responsible for producing national generic risk
assessments (GRAs).
Peter attends and provides support to larger operational incidents at both Silver and
Gold levels of command. During his career, Peter has attended and taken command
roles at a wide range of significant operational incidents, including a number of major
fires (several of which were in high rise buildings), a major incident at Chancery Lane
LUL station and at Kings Cross during the 7/7 London bombings. More recently, Peter
attended the helicopter crash in Vauxhall as LFB’s principal media spokesperson.
Through his work with CLG/CFRA, Peter took on the role of principal author for the
revised GRA that covers firefighting in high rise buildings. This was a significant
project, which run over three years and involved close working across the UK fire
service and with stakeholders such as trades unions and the Health and Safety
Executive. The GRA was published in February 2014 and provides UK fire services with
information on a range of hazards associated with high rise fires and guidance on how
these can be controlled through measures such as those associated with planning,
training and command and control.

5. Social Programme
One of the main objectives of the conference is for delegates to meet and network with
colleagues from around the world. To that end the following social programme has been
arranged:
Wednesday 8th July, from 7pm: Networking
Reception at the Meantime micro-brewery.
With a wide selection of great beers and ales,
this venue is a great place to discuss the
subjects of the day. Pay as you go bar. Located
within the campus, 500 meters of the
conference venue.
Dress: informal + conference badges
www.oldbrewerygreenwich.com
Thursday 9th July, from 6:30pm: Gala Dinner in the Painted Hall.
The magnificent Painted Hall will provide a superb setting for the Gala Dinner. This is a
formal event. Black tie or dark lounge suit is the dress code. The meal is included in the
full delegate fee. Accompanying drinks (wine, soft drinks, etc.) will be available from a
cash bar. A string quartet will play during the evening.
The evening will feature an after dinner speech by the World renowned explorer,
Sir Ranulph Fiennes. Findraising for Help for Heroes will be part of the evening.
Often described as the ‘World’s Greatest Living
Explorer,’ Ran Fiennes is the first person to
reach both North and South Poles by foot. He
also made it into the record books by completing
seven marathons on seven continents (including
Antarctica) in seven days – soon after receiving
emergency heart surgery. Only then did he take
up climbing, starting with the North Face of the
Eiger. At the age of 65, at his third attempt, Ran
became the oldest Briton to conquer Everest.
In 2013 Ran launched The Coldest Journey, an
attempt to cross Antarctica on foot during the
southern winter where the temperature falls to
minus 90°C. He was forced to withdraw when he
suffered severe frostbite, but still claims that “if
you are lucky enough to be able to walk around
without a crutch, you might as well go for it.”
Ran Fiennes inspires and entertains conference
and after dinner audiences throughout the
world. Presentations draw a connection between
nature’s most dangerous and difficult challenges,
and the day-to-day hurdles we all face.
Teamwork, determination, patience, discipline
and creative thinking are all critical in
expeditions; we may not risk our own lives in
the same way, but the parallels are clear even in
less hazardous occupations.
6. University of Greenwich

Travel: http://www.visitgreenwich.org.uk/how-to-get-to-greenwich
Greenwich Campus is located in the old Royal
Naval College, which it moved into in the 1990s
when the premises were sold by the Royal Navy.
This makes it look like an old University when
actually it's a former polytechnic which only
became a university in the 1990s.
Three of the university’s schools are based here:
the Business School, the School of Computing and
Mathematical Sciences and the School of
Humanities & Social Sciences. The campus is also
home to the university’s Greenwich Maritime
Institute, a specialist maritime management,
policy and history teaching and research institute.
