silk safety ltd
Silk is the product of a life’s work for our founder and Managing Director Myra
Kelly. Myra gained her first degree as a mature student in Scotland and went on
to complete her Master’s degree while working full-time for one of the most
successful global multidisciplinary consultancies at that time. Two decades on,
she has gained her stripes and professional acumen while committing
wholeheartedly to the UK’s two leading professional safety organisations. She
became a Chartered Fellow of the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health
(CFIOSH) in 2021, and also became a Fellow of the Association for Project Safety
(FaPS) in the same year. Myra is a banner-waving, passionate advocate for
creating positive safety cultures within businesses. She firmly believes that
H&S compliance does not need to be cumbersome or overly reliant on paperwork and
should never be viewed as having a negative impact on people or businesses. In
fact, quite the opposite. Companies that commit to and value their staff, can
easily demonstrate this by investing in expedient, common sense solutions that
people can buy into. Today, it has become increasingly important to show staff
they are truly valued and to commit to their development and well-being. One way
of doing this is by making their working environment a safe one. Myra’s passion
for safety and safeguarding people in the workplace is mirrored in the high
quality of work she delivers to Silk’s clients.
