🚒 It's St Florian’s Day, also known as International Firefighter’s Day.

❤️ Today we honour and thank every firefighter - current and past - for their bravery, dedication, and commitment to protecting our community.

🤍 We pause and remember those firefighters who have sadly lost their lives in service.

Winter is almost upon us.

The likelihood of accidental house fires increases with people spending more time at home.

Some tips to keep you and your family safe:

🔺Install smoke alarms in every bedroom and hallway.

🔺Have a home fire escape plan that you practice with your whole family.

🔺Dust and test your smoke alarm once a month.

🔺 Clean your clothes dryer filter after each use and always run it until the end of the cool down cycle.

🔺Keep everything two metres from the heater.

🔺Have your chimney and flue professionally cleaned annually.

🔺Never leave cooking unattended.

🔺Turn your electric blanket off when you get into bed.

🔺Use your wheat bag according to manufacturer’s instructions and never overheat in the microwave.

Stay safe and visit www.fire.tas.gov.au for more information on how to stay fire safe.
