Local emergency lighting testing in Downham
Where Downham buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Downham buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
We cover the whole of Downham, including the CB6 postcode district, and nearby places such as Ely, Soham and Chatteris.
