Do you know how to give way in an emergency? 🚨
We’re here to remind you about what to do when you see, or hear, an emergency services vehicle responding under lights and sirens. When seconds count, it can save lives.
We’ve had recent examples where drivers completely ignore the Police vehicle behind them. Other drivers slow right down without safely pulling over, and delay Police from responding to emergency situations. Please help us by allowing our team to get to those in need, so we can save lives.
Top tips when an emergency services vehicle approaches with lights and sirens:
🚑 You are required by law to pull to the side of the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
🚔 If the lights and siren of the Police vehicle continue past you, you can resume your journey.
🚒 Make sure you check the road is clear before moving on.

Woodfires safety tips
Here are three top safety tips for using woodfires:
Regular Chimney Maintenance:
Ensure your chimney is cleaned and inspected at least once a year by a professional. This helps prevent creosote buildup, which can cause chimney fires
Use the Right Wood:
Burn only dry wood. Avoid burning green or wet wood, as it produces more creosote and smoke
Install Safety Alarms:
Install smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in your home. Make sure these detectors are tested regularly and have fresh batteries
