The cornerstone of South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue's fire safety agenda is its free home safety checks.

During a check, firefighters or community safety staff will visit your home at a convenient time to carry out the Home Safety Check.  During the visit you can get advice on:

·         How to make your home safer

·         What to do in the event of a fire

·         What to do if you are trapped by a fire

They will also fit a free smoke alarm if your house is without one and explain how to maintain it correctly. 

To arrange your Home Safety Check, or for general fire safety advice, call 0114 253 2314 or text FREE to 87023.  A member of our community safety team will call you back to arrange the visit.
