What is your home’s Safety Score?
Eight questions about your home. In about two minutes you get a score out of 100, what is already in place, and the three things to fix first.
- 01 · Kitchen and bedrooms
Is there a working smoke alarm where you cook and where you sleep?
Press the test button. If nothing sounds, treat it as absent.
- 02 · Kitchen
Is there a fire extinguisher, and was it checked in the last year?
Look at the pressure gauge — the needle should sit in the green.
- 03 · Kitchen
Has the LPG hose been replaced in the last two years?
The hose carries a printed expiry. Cracks or stickiness mean replace it now.
- 04 · Corridor and exits
Could you get from your bedroom to the front door in the dark without moving anything?
Think about boxes in the corridor, a locked grille, or a key you would have to find.
- 05
Is there a written emergency contact card anyone at home could find?
On the fridge or by the door. Numbers on a locked phone do not count.
- 06 · Whole house
Are all sockets free of exposed wiring, with nothing running off a chain of extension boards?
- 07
Is there a first-aid kit you could find in under a minute?
- 08
Does everyone at home know 112 for emergencies and 1930 for money stolen online?
