This is a story printed in my local paper last week, I think someone should inform the hotel manager about WFP.
A WINDOW cleaner cheated death when he fell 10ft from his ladder and brushed spiked railings at a Cambridge hotel.
The 42-year-old suffered a flesh wound to his leg but an ambulance worker said: "If he had fallen at a different angle it could have been a lot more serious."
The man was working as a sub-contractor cleaning windows at the De Vere University Arms Hotel in Regent Street when he appears to have slipped from his ladder.
Hotel staff gave him first aid and called an ambulance.
A spokesman for the East of England Ambulance Trust said: "A rapid response unit was sent to the hotel.
"A second ambulance then took the man to Addenbrooke's Hospital.
"He was awake and alert but complaining of numbness in his legs."
A spokesman for the hotel said: "We are investigating what happened and will be working closely with environmental health.
"We have all the necessary risk assessments in place, and are satisfied it was a genuine accident."
The window cleaner has been released from hospital.
Cambridge City Council Environmental Services, which works with businesses to improve health and safety, said they were looking into the accident.
A spokesman said: "The hotel will carry out their own investigation into the incident but we will also be sending a representative down there as soon as possible to investigate what has happened.
"We will then put in place any changes which we feel need to be made to prevent this happening again.
"We will also be speaking to the person who was injured and the company he works for to ensure they also had the correct safety procedures, such as non-slip shoes, in place."
