If there's a fire in your block
Each block will have a policy in place, which may include a stay put policy. Details of this can be found by the entrance doors.
If there's a fire in your home:
- call the fire service on 999
- get all occupants to leave the property
- do not return to gather your belongings
- close all doors including the front door
- leave the building as quickly as possible
- use the safest route possible.
If there's a fire but it's not in your home:
- it should be safe to stay in your home
- stay alert
- leave your home and close all doors if the heat or smoke begins to affect your home
- wait for instructions from the fire service and follow their advice.
