Home fire safety advice

Protect yourself and reduce the risk of fire by:
  • Not leaving cooking unattended
  • Keeping doors closed at night
  • Switching off as many electrical appliances as possible at night
  • Putting out cigarettes and candles safely and keeping matches and lighters away from children

When you make your fire action plan:

  • Always include children and elderly and disabled people
  • Chose the best escape route and another way out and keep them clear
  • Tell everyone where the door and window keys are
  • Fitting smoke alarms on each floor level and testing the each week

To save your life in a fire:

  • If your smoke alarm goes off in the night, don’t investigate - wake others and get out, following your plan
  • Don’t open any doors that feel warm
  • Don’t stop or go back for anything - phone the Fire Service on 999
  • if you can’t get out, stay together in one room, close the door and wait to be rescued
