Every home in Cumbria is eligible to apply for a free Home Safety Visit to help them deal with any potential fire hazards in their homes.  The service target is to carry out 15,000 visits per year.

We can help you design a fire plan so that you and your family will know how to react if you have a fire.  We will also fit, where applicable, a battery powered smoke alarm free of charge.

This service for the residents of Cumbria is completely free, normally takes about 30 minutes and is undertaken by Cumbria Fire & Rescue Service personnel.

To arrange a visit please ring freephone: 0800 358 4777

All Cumbria Fire & Rescue Service personnel carry an identification card.  Never let anyone into your home unless you know them or they can prove their identity.  If you are in doubt please call 01900 822503 for help.
