If you are Issued a London Fire Brigade Notice, Then LFRA Can Help You Comply with the Notice

There are many reasons why you can be issued with a London Fire Brigade ‘Notice’ and there are various levels of severity. One of the most common requests on the ‘Notice’ is that the premise must obtain a ‘suitable and sufficient’ Fire Safety Risk Assessment. This should be carried out by a ‘third part competent person’ so don’t even consider a cheap checklist solution off the internet – your situation is too serious to waste time on possibly unsuitable alternatives. You need a qualified Assessor who knows what he/she is doing and can help you comply with the ‘Notice’ - appointing a qualified person doesn’t necessarily mean it will be expensive it could save you money in the long run!

London Flat Fire – Dog Saves The Lives Of Elder Couple That Didn’t Have A Working Smoke Alarm!

London Fire Brigade reported on their incident page, that a neighbour’s dog saved the life of an elderly couple after alerting its owner to a fire in a neighbouring flat, which had no working smoke alarms.

A flat on the second floor and the roof of the building were completely damaged by fire, and another flat on the second floor was left un-inhabitable.

A downstairs neighbour raised the alarm after being woken by her pet Chihuahua, who would not stop barking!

The Station manager who was at the scene, said: “Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus rescued an elderly man and woman from the flat and they were both taken to hospital by London Ambulance Service crews. Around 50 residents from the block were evacuated as a precaution.” The flat, where the fire started is not believed to have been fitted with a working smoke alarm. To read more click here. 

London Fire Risk Assessments advice to clients: 

Every purpose built block of flats must have a FireRisk Assessment for the communal areas – it’s the law! (RegulatoryReform (Fire Safety Order) 2005). The Fire Safety Risk Assessment includes a Fire Safety Protection Inspection Service, once this is carried out it will identify any deficiencies within the common parts of the property and should identify what is needed to stop a fire spreading from one area of the premise to another. Ask your Managing agent or Landlord if you haven’t seen the Fire Risk Assessment for your London Block of Flats!

However, it is the Residents responsibility to install Smoke Detection in their Flats. There are many companies offering Fire Protection Services in London who can help you.
