Fit a smoke alarm
You are much more likely to die in a fire in your own home if you do not have a working smoke alarm
A smoke alarm can give you those precious few minutes of warning which could help you and your family to get out safely.
Smoke alarms are a safety device. Every home should have one, preferably one on each floor. Smoke alarms should be properly maintained.
- Every week check the battery in your alarm by pressing the button to test
- Change the battery every year (Unless fitted with a 10-year battery)
- Vacuum inside of the alarm to ensure the dust is not blocking the sensors.
| Remember - Make your home safe for children |

- Never leave your children alone in the house
- Keep all matches and lighters out of the reach of children
- Never assume infants are incapable of lighting a match or lighter
