Fire home safety checks
Firefighters can visit your home, where you may be at the greatest risk from fire, and offer advice on Fire Safety, tailored specifically to your needs and where necessary fit free smoke detectors.
We are currently targeting our resources at those households most at risk, but will attend to you as soon as possible if you request this service.
