Fire Safety in Your Home - 5. What we are doing to keep you safe

Published: 26 September 2024

The council is doing everything it can to make sure you are safe in your home.

We have a number of ongoing works programmes which will be upgrading the communal parts of your building and in your home, including:

  1. New front entrance doors and reinstating compartmentalisation to make sure potential fires remain contained
  2. Upgraded fire-fighting equipment in the high-rise buildings to assist the fire brigade with extinguishing any fire
  3. Improved fire detection in buildings and homes
  4. More regular inspections and increased training for staff, so they can identify and resolve hazards and risks
  5. Continuing to work very closely with the London Fire Brigade to share plans and information
  6. Listening to your feedback about this information. We work with a resident-led group called the Fire, Building Safety and Repairs Working Group (FRAG) to discuss fire safety, repairs and compliance works

If you are interested in finding out more about the group, please get in touch with the Housing Resident Involvement Team on:
