Julian Dean joins Acorn Safety Services

Acorn Safety Services has appointed Julian Dean as its new fire safety manager.

Dean has 15 years of experience in fire safety, having worked as a Fire Risk Assessor and Business Development Manager.

He has conducted fire risk assessments for various clients, including television personalities Jeremy Clarkson and James May.

Dean appeared in series two, episode six of Clarkson’s Farm, where he carried out a fire risk assessment at the Diddly Squat Farm Shop.

He has also assessed fire risks for Clarkson’s newly opened pub, The Farmer’s Dog, and May’s boutique hotel, The Royal Oak in Wiltshire.

Fire risk assessments for high-profile clients

Dean’s experience includes conducting fire risk assessments at Wycombe Wanderers FC and other commercial properties.

Speaking about his involvement with Clarkson’s Farm, Dean said: “I was working for a local housing association, and they pick up work occasionally from West Oxfordshire Council.

“They asked if there was a fire risk assessor available and I went along not knowing as I’d never seen the programme. I was portrayed as the irritating fire inspector.”

He is expected to feature in series four of the show, which is set to be released in May.

New role at Acorn Safety Services

Dean has now joined Acorn Safety Services and is looking forward to bringing his expertise to the company.

He said: “It’s great to be part of a lovely team of people again as before Acorn Safety I was working for myself for a year. The team have been really welcoming.”
