Make a fire escape plan and practise it often

Keep your ways out/exits clear at all times
• Whether you discover the fire or your smoke alarm warns you, stay calm and put your fire escape plan into action.
 • Raise the alarm. Wake everyone up and get everyone out by the quickest way, assisting or collecting the very young or vulnerable in the household.
 • Check doors with the back of your hand – don’t open them if they are warm. This means the fire is on the other side. Only open the doors that you need to get out of the house.
 • If there is smoke, crawl along near to the floor where the air will be cleaner.
• Do not look for the cause of the fire.
 • Meet at an assembly point outside your home and make sure everyone is out.
 • Call the Fire Service at 999 or 112 from a call box, mobile phone or neighbour's house.
• Do not go back in until the Fire Service tells you it is safe.
