Northumberland Fire and Rescue Service - Home Safety Checks
Our Home Fire Safety Check programme supports the most at risk residents to identify risks in the home. If you're unable to test or change your own smoke alarms you maybe eligible for a visit. During our visit we will look out for risks in your home, not just relating to fire, but also other factors that might affect your health and wellbeing. We will help you to make an escape plan in case of a fire and talk to you about creating a night-time routine.
