Smoke Alarm Action Day 2024 Campaign Kit
Last year, 49% of the homes damaged/destroyed by fire in NSW did not contain a working smoke alarm (either not working or not present). In 2022, the figure was 50%.
This year, on 1 June, Fire and Rescue NSW are urging the community to take part in the inaugural Smoke Alarm Action Day.
This toolkit has been developed to help our stakeholders communicate with their local community. It contains assets and resources that can be downloaded and shared.
For any assistance, please contact the FRNSW Media Team
Note: Additional shareable resources will be added throughout the campaign. Please visit this page regularly for updates.
