Please take the time to read the following important information:

Smoke alarms

  • You are six times more likely to die in a fire if you do not have a smoke alarm.
  • Smoke alarms give early warning of fire – especially important when everyone is sleeping.
  • Alarms should be properly maintained so test your alarm weekly. (If you are in supported sheltered housing your Independent Living Coordinator will carry out these checks for you).
  • Replace the battery every year.
  • At least one alarm should be fitted on each floor ideally in the hall or landing ceilings.
