Hazards / Risks: Fire Safety

Fires are something we see happening daily across the country and unfortunately so often have severe consequences. 

We have got much better at reducing the risk from fire with things like candle safety campaigns, smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and a better understanding of hazardous/flammable materials. 

However despite the good progress on fire safety we can never rest on our laurels as house fires are still far to regular alongside the ever increasing risks we are having in relation to wildfires.
