Fire & Rescue NSW has partnered with Insurance Company GIO to launch a new campaign on the FRNSW Facebook page as part of their 2011 Winter (yes, it is winter down under) Fire Safety strategy.
Members of the public who take part in the eight question Home Fire Safety Audit can have their picture projected on the face of a 3 metre fireman statue that will appear in several places around Sydney.
People who complete the audit will be receive a notice when and where their face will appear. Along with the honour of appearing on the statue, people receive a list of practical fire safety tips as well as a reminder in 12 months to take the audit again.
I was quite surprised that the audit evaluated me as a ‘High Fire Safety Risk’, so looks like I have some work to do.
My top 3 recommended action items are:
- Testing and cleaning my smoke alarm
- Not to leave my dryer unintended, clean the lint, etc.
- Clean the filters in my bathroom and kitchen exhaust fans
