Fire Safety Week 7th-13th September 2026

Chimney Fire Safety Week aims to raise awareness of the dangers of chimney fires and the common causes, encouraging stove owners to take action. This action could be safe operation, appropriate fuel selection, and regular appliance and chimney maintenance.

The campaign focuses on the importance of using a registered professional for chimney sweeping and appliance maintenance, the use of high-quality fuels, and keeping your home warm through responsible burning habits.

Things you can do now:

• Book a chimney sweep with a Registered professional

• Get your stove serviced

• Never leave a fire unattended

• Store fuel away from your stove

• Use "ready to burn fuels"
