We've recently updated the safety information about emollient skin creams on our website, so if you, or someone you know uses the creams, please take a look now: essex-fire.gov.uk/Home_Fire_…
If you use emollient skin creams avoid: ❌ smoking if there is a risk clothing, bedding and bandages have dried emollient on them ❌ sitting too close to sources of heat (fires or heaters) ❌ using gas or electric hobs Install working smoke alarms #KnowTheFireRisk #SafeHome21
