Sweet dreams?
On average, a quarter of all fatalities in household fires occur because people are trapped while asleep. You are almost three times more likely to be killed in a fire that starts in the night.Keep your exits clear and keep door and window keys handy. Each year, around half of all accidental dwelling fire fatalities occur in the room where the fire first started.
