Don’t drown in toxic smoke. Test your smoke alarm today!
You’re listening to the sound that 1 in 4 smoke alarms make!
Don’t risk it think! don’t drink and drive!
You are more likely to cause a serious road accident or even die, than a driver who hasn’t been drinking. if you are out drinking, book a taxi, grab a lift or even walk home. It’s not worth the risk.
Is your thatch at risk?
A thatched roof is always at risk from fire. Once a fire has taken hold in a thatch it will spread rapidly.
