Look out for strangulation hazards when picking out toys for your little ones this #Christmas.

Did you know that loose ribbons on toys and costumes can pose risks to young children?

The Safety Measures campaign aims to encourage people to
continue following safety behaviours, including opening windows
and doors when meeting indoors and highlighting how outdoor
socialising is safest.

It's important to remember that #coronavirus hasn't gone away.

We all need to follow the rules in place and continue to be careful.

By doing this, we can help keep each other safe and avoid the need for future restrictions.

How do the fire alarm changes affect me if I rent in Scotland? 🤔

Private landlords should already have interlinked fire alarms installed in their homes.

If your rented property does not have interlinked fire alarms, speak to your landlord.
