Safer Home Visits

What does it do?

Is your home safe from fire?
The best way to save a life is to prevent a fire in the first place and homes across the county are benefiting from a Safer Home Visit carried out by the Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service. The checks involve a community safety practitioner visiting your home and giving advice, as well as fitting smoke alarms where necessary. Any resident within
Suffolk can request one and they are completely free of charge.
* We will provide and install FREE 10-year smoke alarms where necessary.
* Give life saving advice in the event of a fire in your home.
* How to make a fire escape plan for you and your family.
* Practical advice on identifying fire hazards in the home.
All home fire safety checks are carried out by employees of Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service who will show identification.
