People should keep an eye on certain items in their homes to ensure nothing goes up in flames.
Last year's winter saw an average of 9,371 monthly fires recorded in the UK, with 11,744 recorded in November alone. Anthony Neary, managing director for safe.co.uk, said: “By looking into the latest UK fire statistics, we hope we’ve given people a good idea of what to look out for and how to be vigilant."
Most people expect house fires to start from the likes of dodgy heating appliances or from cookers and stoves. However, there are a number of common household items that are the most flammable and these are the items we may not think about the most.
