Vulnerable people such as the elderly benefit from Safe and Well visits carried out by UK Fire and Rescue Services. The initiative builds on the long-standing success of Home Safety Checks, which helped to protect people from the risk of fire in their homes. Safe and Well visits include advice to help individuals improve their health and wellbeing with the ultimate goal of reducing their risk from fire. As part of these visits Fire Services supply Safe and Well Equipment. This multi-supplier Framework Agreement is for the supply of Safe and Well Equipment to include but not limited to Fire Retardant bedding, mattress toppers, throws, blankets, curtains, mattresses, nightwear, smoking aprons, home safety security equipment to protect from arson, fire retardant rubber mats, personal protection misting systems that can be fitted into properties and keep warm packs.
