Today we’ve been carrying out a ‘hot strike’ at Vivian Court, this is where we visit homes that are close to a Fire we may have had, in this instance a resident had left food on the hob which produced a large amount of smoke, luckily there was smoke detection fitted, if you’d like a Home Fire Safety Check please get in touch. #fire #Truro #Firesafety
