FIRE safety checks for vulnerable adults will be rolled out across Notts.
Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service worked with Nottinghamshire County Council last year to contact over 500 adults over 85 and living alone in Ashfield to offer free home fire safety checks.
The programme was in response to research that showed those over 65 and living alone were at particular risk of fire.
Sixty households took up the offer and the scheme is now being evaluated for possible improvements before it is rolled out across the county.
