Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue
Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue's Community Fire Safety department offers a Safe and Well Check service, which is a free assessment of fire risks within homes. This service provides advice on reducing fire risks and improving health and wellbeing, and may include the installation of smoke alarms and tailored safety plans. The service is available to Lincolnshire residents through an online self-assessment or by referral, with priority given to those most at risk. Typically, the process begins with completing an online assessment or referral form. While wait times are not specified, those at highest risk are prioritized for in-person visits. It's advisable to call during standard business hours for the best chance of reaching a representative.
