Staying Safe in the Heat

A few practical lines worth including for families:

Plan outdoor activities for morning or early evening; the early afternoon heat (roughly 12–3pm) is best spent indoors or in water.

Keep kids — and yourselves — drinking water regularly, even without feeling thirsty

Light, loose clothing and a hat go a long way on hikes like Vesuvius

BRUNEI: Fire Safety Advice

Fire Safety Advice

• Check your smoke alarms. They can give you the vital time needed to escape in a fire. Test your smoke alarms regularly (‘press to test’) and never remove the batteries or cover up the detectors.

• Don’t overload sockets. Ensure only one plug per socket and don’t join extension leads together (‘daisy chaining’). Always turn off plugs when they are not in use, except those that are designed to be left on, e.g. freezers.

• Check your tree lights. Check your tree lights conform to British Standards (BS EN 60598) and are in good working order before use. Ensure you switch off fairy lights and unplug them before you go to bed or leave the house.
