Yeah your dead right. Who really needs the fire service now. I obviously exclude those who do actually need rescuing from fires, and those who don't but wouldn't mind the fire being put out anyway. People in motor accidents, those trapped in floods, stuck in lifts, mangled in machinery, stuck under buildings, fallen in water, hit by trains, effected by chemicals, involved in terrorist attacks and a hundred things in between. But yeah your right, who needs a fire service seeing there are far fewer fires today than previously. We will even correct spelling for you. (even if the grammar it's still terrible)
Ps fitting smoke alarms to make the elderly, ill and vulnerable safer is a terrible waste of money purely designed to justify employment. You must be some kind of genius.

whilst I endorse the fire safety check, please only take the smoke alarms if you really can't afford it as the fire service must have to soak up the cost

Be aware that the EVEREADY brand is not the battery company from years ago. The brand is being used on horrible cheap rubbish from China to fool people into thinking it is an established quality brand. I bought some eveready brand lightbulbs and they were the worst I have ever had, they literally fell apart in the socket and those that did work lasted a couple of months at best. Don't waste your money on this cheep rubbish.
Consider that a smoke alarm is a safety device that one day might save your life, get a decent one. You can even get the local fire brigade to come and install some decent ones for free.

Always wonder why co2 alarms cost so much compare to smoke alarms. No excuse to not have these in every room.

My local fire station did a free fire safety check and supplied and fit 2 free fire angel smoke alarms a few weeks ago. Very quick to call and free alarms were great.

Even cheaper option is to contact your local fire station and ask for a free home fire safety check. If you don't have any they will supply you for free

The cost of two smoke alarms in negligible, probably about £10, compared to the total cost of the 'free' fire safety check. The whole scheme is a waste of money - designed to keep staff busy and justify their employment, seeing there are far fewer fires today that previously.
