Home Fire Safety Check

Islanders can now access home fire safety information, with a personalised action plan, online.

The States of Jersey Fire and Rescue Service offers the Home Fire Safety Check, which will enable you to carry out your own home fire risk assessment for free.

The online tool takes the answers given and creates an action plan giving basic tips to help keep your home fire safe.

When using the tool, you are asked for information about each part of your property, with the answers then generating easy-to-follow advice that can be kept and referred to at any time.

The online home safety check tool does not replace the in-person visits the Service offers to vulnerable residents in the Island. 

The tool was developed following a successful pilot study in collaboration with Fire Kills and Safelincs, under the National Fire Chief Council’s Prevention programme.
