This years theme is “STOP Fire – Working Smoke Alarms Save Lives”  

Smoke alarms – make sure that you have at least one on every floor

Test your smoke alarms weekly – test your smoke alarm weekly, or ask someone to check it for you

Obvious dangers – look for fire risks like overloaded sockets, candles and unattended appliances 

Plan your escape route – keep access routes clear and have your keys at the ready.
