Making a difference to safety in the home
Find out about how you can keep safe in your home
 
 

Every year in the UK more than 4,000 people die in accidents in the home. To make sure you don’t become another statistic, get helpful advice from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents.

Vital fire safety information is provided by your local fire brigade. You can find lots of helpful hints on protecting yourself and your home from fire at the Fire Kills website.  For firework safety visit the Safer Fireworks website.

At Guinness Northern Counties we are proud of our Health & Safety Policy, which aims to exceed the minimum requirements in providing a health, comfortable and safe environment for our staff, residents and visitors. This includes making sure all our homes receive an annual gas safety check, as well as participating in the European Week for Safety and Health at Work through the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work.
