If this 6mm T&E cable is independent and straight from the DB.

Have a sparky check it’s insulation resistance test…!! ( in case it’s an old cable that’s had a tough life).

Treat it like an extension.!

DB1 with a 40amp feeding your 6mm to a DB1/1 mini board in your loft to feed 2x radial sockets and as you mentioned.!!! Lights & possibly a Heater….!!!!

As you mentioned your kids might be up there.
PLEASE PLEASE install an interlinked Smoke/Heat detector..
