  • 25.03.2026

Hawkins are delighted to invite you and your colleagues to our Spring Drinks Reception at the Whitworth Gallery in Manchester.

Guests are invited to join us in the Grand Hall from 4:30 pm for a 5.00 pm start. We commence with a CPD presentation before gathering in the Gallery for drinks and canapés.

Hawkins experts will guide attendees through the forensic investigation into the collapse of a racking system in a commercial warehouse and subsequent structural damage, followed by the the clean-up operation of potentially hazardous substances. We will also investigate a personal injury incident allegedly arising from a slip on a wet surface during the clean-up process. The panel will present their findings to assist in determining potential liability exposures and the apportionment of responsibility across the various incidents.

There will also be an opportunity to examine real-life exhibits from Hawkins casework and experience a virtual walk-through of a fire scene using a VR headset.
