Moorlands firefighters are expecting an increase in accidental house fires as people potentially make changes to the way they heat their homes and use energy this winter.
They are launching a campaign “Be Warm. Be Safe” to raise awareness and limit the impact the cost-of-living crisis could have on the number of fires.
The service is teaming up with partner organisations, opening some of its fire stations as warm spaces, and distributing posters and leaflets to locations across the county to raise awareness of the campaign, highlighting the steps people can do to ensure they, and those they care for, are as safe as possible from fire in their homes.
More information on the campaign “Be. Warm. Be Safe” is available on the home page of Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service’s website.
