Most people have multi-way extension leads in their homes, to increase the number of appliances that they can plug into a wall socket.

However, although there is space to plug in a number of appliances, this does not mean it is always safe to do so.

Avoid overloading sockets - use this socket calculator from Electrical Safety First :

Heading away for the weekend? Set your heating to low instead of turning it off fully and help prevent pipes freezing while you’re gone. 🏡🔥

Help keep your communities safe.

According to government statistics, smoke alarms were absent in more than one-third of fire-related fatalities in the past year.

And 43% of Britons admit to not checking their smoke alarms with the recommended frequency.

Not because they don’t care, but because danger doesn’t feel real when everything looks normal.

That tiny sound you keep meaning to fix? That’s your early warning system, your chance to wake up and walk away.
