Make sure your chimney or stove flue is professionally cleaned twice a year. If installing a solid fuel appliance use an approved registered installer. Always place a spark guard in front of open fires when unattended.
6th Day of Christmas…Battery Fire Safety
Batteries present a fire risk when over-charged, short-circuited, submerged in water or if damaged. Never place waste batteries in your household bins. Waste batteries can be disposed of at your local civic amenity site free of charge.
5th Day of Christmas…Electrical Fire Safety
Switch off all lights & decorations last thing at night. Even lights & decorations need a break. Never overload plugs or extension leads as this causes overheating and possibly a fire. Buy and use electrical products that are CE marked.
4th Day of Christmas…Decoration Fire Safety
Are your old Christmas Lights still safe? Poorly stored, old electrical decorations can cause unnecessary hazards at this time of year. LED lights operating at extra low voltage with minimal heat output is recommended.
RSVP Campaign
R.S.V.P. encourages people to be risk aware, to think before they meet up with others, and to ask themselves the right questions about Risk, Symptoms, Venue and People.
3rd Day of Christmas…Escape Route & Exit Fire Safety
