FireSafe

We deliver one to one sessions for young people to explore firesetting behaviour.

The FireSafe programme usually commences with a fire safety check (Safe and Well Visit) for the family home (or homes if more than one). This helps to ensure that everyone is aware of how best to keep safe and that they know what to do in the event of a fire. Following this visit, an assessment can be made and an action plan formulated for a young person exhibiting firesetting behaviour (at this point a referral may be declined although alternative therapies would be suggested).

The programme comprises a blend of educational content and site visits designed to foster critical thinking. It is facilitated by members of the Safety Education team, who possess extensive experience working with individuals of diverse ages and abilities. The programme can be delivered through various methods, including online formats where appropriate, and at multiple locations. Regardless of the delivery method or venue, the programme will be customized to meet the specific needs of the participants.

The aim of the programme is to make young people aware of the impact of their behaviour through discussion and to give them the opportunity to explore different ways of dealing with the root cause of the firesetting behaviour.
