________________

In this episode of CleanTalk, we sit down with Iain Tindall, owner of ‪@belayropeaccesstraining3194‬ Centre in Newhaven, East Sussex, to explore what safety training really looks like behind the scenes in the offshore wind industry.

This conversation is released in conjunction with a full training vlog following Luke through his GWO Basic Safety Training, which drops this Friday. The film documents the reality of working at height, sea survival, fire awareness, manual handling, and first aid, and why these skills are non-negotiable for anyone working on or around wind energy infrastructure.

In today's discussion, Iain shares insights from decades working offshore across oil, gas, and wind. We talk about dynamic risk assessment, complacency as a leading cause of incidents, how training must evolve as turbines move further offshore and increase in scale, and why human judgement still matters even as automation and robotics improve.

Audio-only listeners: this episode includes short excerpts from the full vlog. You’ll still get plenty of value listening, but for the best experience we recommend watching on YouTube or Spotify.

This episode is for offshore wind technicians, safety professionals, trainers, operators, engineers, and anyone curious about what it really takes to keep people safe while building the energy system of the future.

Enjoy!
