Lightning Safety Systems Secure 3 Year Contract with National Leisure Group

Knowledge Hub

Fire safety starts with prevention — and whether you’re at home or in the workplace, a few simple steps can make all the difference in reducing risks and protecting lives.

Every business, regardless of size or sector, has a duty to keep its employees, customers, and premises safe. Among the most critical components of workplace safety is the fire alarm system.

In homes across the UK, a small, often-overlooked device quietly sits on the ceiling. It may not seem like much, but that humble fire alarm can mean the difference between life and death.

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service (HIWFRS) is changing the way it responds to Automatic Fire Alarms in certain types of buildings as of 01 August 2025.
