Our statistics show that fire risk can increase with age and, if you answer yes to any of the questions above in relation to an older friend, neighbour or relative,they may be at higher risk and be eligiblefor a free home safety checkby our staff.

In the meantime,help make them saferby:
- Making sure they have working smoke alarms
- Ensuring they’ve got a proper ash tray, if they smoke
- Getting them a working phone that stays with them all the time
- Speaking to them about what to do in the event of a fire
- Helping them de-clutter, particularly their exit routes
