Fire Service calls on Essex residents to check in on neighbours who live alone to help prevent fire deaths. This follows a fatal bedroom fire in Colchester on 14th January, the resident lived alone. Recent figures show that more than 80 per cent of people who died in house fires in Essex over the last few years were older people who lived on their own. Eighty per cent of the people who died did not have working smoke alarms.
You can help by signposting neighbours who live alone for help reducing fire risks if they need it.
If you have any concerns about fire safety in your neighbour’s home, please refer them for a free home safety visit here.
