Fire prevention and safety report
“Fire Protection is a serious business” explains Alan Price of Southern Fire. “It is about protecting people and property. It is not about trying to save pennies.” The 2005 Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order places specific responsibilities on business owners to protect people and property. The Southern Fire report outlines these requirements, but also analyzed the horrifying statistics about the losses incurred by fire every year in the UK. “Reading these frightening statistics it is easy understand why our team take its responsibilities so seriously,” emphasises Alan Price. The report is entitled “A Consumer Guide to Protecting Your Business and Your Home” and is available from the Southern Fire website at: www.southernfire.co.uk/sfsl_general.php?r=RXEMW0ZXAB.
The risks of fire to individuals and businesses
The Southern Fire report covers several crucial areas of fire prevention and protection. The first part covers six important actions that the every business owner is obliged to take to comply with the new regulatory reform (Fire Safety) order 2005. The second part describes three simple steps to successfully choosing and installing an appropriate fire alarm for a business or domestic premises.

Subsequent sections deal with the issues of protecting family homes and possessions from the risk of fire, as well as outlining some of the crucial mistakes people make when choosing fire protection equipment and selecting a fire protection company to install and service the equipment. The report also provides copious statistics about the alarming levels of injury, death and loss of property to for in the UK annually.
UK fire statistics
“Every fifteen minutes fire services across the UK will attend thirty fires or false alarms” says Alan Price. “On average, two people will die as a result of a fire in the next twenty four hours.” Southern Fire believes that most fires are preventable, and sees its fire report as playing an important role in educating the public and business owners in what steps can be taken to prevent fire. The risks for business are high: there are 112 fires involving commercial buildings every day in the UK. Many businesses that experience a serious fire do not recover. The government estimated that in 2000, loss due to arson was over £2b. Insurance companies reported that 40% of their losses were arson related. The government estimates that the true cost of fire in the UK in 2002 was £6,900,000,000.
