This is great, I had my 2 fire alrarms fitted about a week ago. You phone the number below, book an appointment and 3 firemen pop round to your home. 2 fit the alarms one at the top, and one at the bottom of the staris. The other fire man explains fire prevention.
"The Kent Fire & Rescue Service givs every domestic household in the county of Kent a free home fire safety check.
This check will involve a trained Firefighter visiting your home and checking for any risks you have that could start a fire, we will then advise you on how to reduce that risk.
We will also install, where necessary, smoke alarms with 10 year batteries, all of which a totally free of charge, you will not be asked to pay for anything.

Well done for posting though, more people should be made aware of this free service.................................... MSE MARTIN LEWIS ... :A ... THANK YOU.......................0 -
I think most fire brigades do this, I had two free fitted last year
I would also get a carbon monoxide one not free but worth the peace of mind0 -
I already have smoke alarms fitted but am interested in the fact "3 firemen pop round to your home"
I am sure I could find an alternative use for them..................0 -
I too had them fitted about 12 months ago now, and I live in Oldham. Before we moved here we lived in Manchester and we had them fitted there too... So yes I think it is nationwide, think you just need to Call your Local fire station.
I already had 4 in here, but they are the electric wired ones, but they still put me 2 new ones in as the fireman said it was better to be safe than sorry with the electric ones.
HTH:D:D:D:D
Where's the Coffee?? Show me the Coffee NOW!!0
