FIRES-Make sure you have fire alarms installed in your home and check the batteries regularly. Never leave candles unattended and ensure to unplug appliances after use. It is recommended not to put excessive amounts of plugs into a power adapter and keep these areas tidy. When charging devices keep them off soft surfaces that can easily catch fire.
CHOKING- Make sure all blind and curtain cords are tied down and don’t have any excess string. Don’t leave necklaces and headbands on young children and remove bibs immediately after use.
CUTS-Clean away sharp items, such as knives and garden tools, immediately after use. When loading the dishwasher, point knives downwards to avoid cuts when packing them away later.
POISONING-Keep all poisons in a safe place, preferably high up. Never decant poisons into unlabelled containers as they can easily be mistaken for something else. Ensure all medication is secured and out of easy reach from children.
DROWNING-If you have a pool, make sure you have a regulation fence which is kept closed at all times. Empty paddling pools immediately after use and monitor young children in and around water, especially in the bath.
