ABOUT THE CAMPAIGN:

Smoke alarms are one of the best ways of preventing deaths and injuries in house fires. If a fire does start, smoke alarms can give you an early warning, giving you the vital extra seconds needed to escape. But smoke alarms only save lives if they are working properly. To ensure your smoke alarms are working when you need them:

  • Test regularly by holding down the ‘test’ button until it beeps

  • Change the battery when the low battery warning operates

  • Make sure they are free from dust and dirt
