What to do if there is a fire

In your flat (or that of a neighbour):

  • leave your flat calmly with everyone else who is there
  • do not collect valuables – leave everything behind
  • close all doors
  • do not use the lift
  • use the stairs
  • get out of the building and stay out
  • call 999 – don’t assume someone else has

Elsewhere in the block:

  • close the doors in your flat and in the communal areas
  • place damp towels or cloths and tape around the door if you smell smoke
  • stay in your home unless advised by the Fire Service
  • call 999 – don’t assume someone else has
