Facilities
Our Southampton training centre offers a diverse range of facilities tailored for professional development and safety training. Featuring four dedicated training rooms, we ensure ample space for immersive learning experiences.
Standout among our offerings is our confined space facility, meticulously crafted to replicate real-world scenarios. With 5 rooms, a network of crawl spaces, 11 tunnels, and platforms up to 6 meters in length, this environment caters to specialised training needs. Artificial smoke can be added for enhanced realism.
Standing 9 metres high, our indoor scaffold access system serves as a versatile platform for Working at Height training. Equipped with ladders, trap doors, guardrails, and more, it enables comprehensive skill development, including suspended rescue.
Additionally, we provide a mobile tower for PASMA training and specialised facilities for maritime industry training. These include a two-story fire rig for STCW fire training and a dry life raft training area for STCW certification.

Nice place to learn helpful and friendly teacher
I have recently completed my five-day Safety training with MRS in Southampton, and I can honestly say these guys are on top of their game. Matt, Rich and Charlie are brilliant at their ‘crafts’ plus, they are easy to speak to, professional and their friendly nature make the training so fun and enjoyable. The reception team are also very helpful. Absolutely enjoyed it. I would recommend MRS without hesitation! Thank you all!
