What to do in specific emergencies?
Fire
- Get all members of the household together and get out
- If there is a lot of smoke, crawl along the floor where the air is clearer
- Stay out
- Call 999
- Alert neighbours as they too may need to evacuate
- If you cannot get out, stay together in one room near an open window. Push a blanket or something similar along the bottom of the door
