What is a Fire Risk Assessment (FRA)?

A Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) is an inspection of fire safety in your buildings. The purpose of the assessment is to:
  1. Assess the risk of a fire occurring.
  2. Assess the likelihood of the occupants being able to respond to a fire.
  3. Assess the consequences of a fire occurring in the building.
  4. Take preventative action.

How often are Fire Risk Assessments carried out?

A Fire Risk Assessment is carried out annually and preventative actions are reviewed monthly. On occasion, it may not be possible for them to meet the desired target dates for actions set out in the assessment due to factors outside of their control. In such circumstances (and where applicable) they will identify and introduce additional or temporary measures to ensure fire safety at all times.

Who can I speak to if I am concerned about fire safety?

In the first instance, speak with the Responsible Person (RP) for your building. Information on how to contact your RP can be found in your welcome handbook and on notices in reception. If unsure, speak to a member of staff who will be happy to assist you.

How can I prepare myself in case of fire?

Be aware of the fire evacuation strategy and procedure. You will find information on your assembly point and what to do in the event of fire displayed on Fire Action Notices dotted around the building and in your welcome handbook. Every six months they will hold a fire drill, and they ask for your cooperation as this will help guide you on the evacuation procedure. Failure to evacuate the building upon hearing the fire alarm puts you and others at risk. If in doubt, please speak to the Responsible Person for your building.

How do I reduce the risk of fire in the kitchen?

You can reduce the risk of fire in the kitchen by following a few simple rules:
  1. Never leave cooking food unattended.
  2. Check the cooker and hob are turned off when cooking is finished.
  3. Never cook under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
  4. Keep towels away from the cooker and hob.
  5. Clean your toaster frequently to avoid combustible crumbs.
  6. Never tamper with the fire blanket. This is there for your safety.

How can I reduce the risk of electrical fire?

Please ensure you check your welcome handbook for details of prohibited items:
  1. Never use portable heaters. These are prohibited.
  2. Do not use non-UK electrical items or adapters and never use a two-point plug with a three-point socket.
  3. Do not dry laundry on your electrical heater.
  4. Do not leave mobile phones on charge while unattended or asleep.
  5. Keep electrical items and leads away from water.

How can I reduce the risk of fire in my bedroom or studio?

Why are fire doors important?

Fire doors stop smoke and fire from spreading through a building, giving people time to escape. Never wedge open a door marked with a blue and white (circular) sign that reads "Fire Door Keep Shut" and never disconnect the self-closing device. If you see a damaged fire door, please report this to the Responsible Person without delay.

If I need assistance to evacuate in the event of a fire, what should I do?

In the unlikely event of a fire, and you need assistance evacuating a building, even if this is only on a temporary basis, then you need to bring this to the attention of the Responsible Person for your building. They will work with you to complete your Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan. You do not need to reveal any personal medical information but they do ask that you tell them about anything that affects your ability to evacuate a building.

What are false fire alarms and how can I help to reduce them?

False alarms or unwanted fire signals occur when the fire alarm is activated when there is no fire. False alarms can be a significant inconvenience to all residents and staff and cause unnecessary pressure and resources for the local fire authority. You can help to reduce false alarms by following a few simple rules:
  1. Close your bathroom door when taking a shower, steam can cause an activation.
  2. Do not smoke in your flat, room, or studio.
  3. Do not cover a fire alarm detector and never tamper with fire safety equipment.
