Fire Safety is of the utmost importance, and housing fires are preventable more often than not. Despite this, fires in UK housing are no thing of the past – with the Grenfell Tower fire affecting the national consciousness perhaps more than any other.
Despite this, in 2021, four years after the Grenfell Tower Fire, Housing, Management & Maintenance discovered a range of potentially lethal lackings in fire safety were ever present.
In 2023, Housing, Management & Maintenance conducts a further study to see if the industry has made progress in the last two years, if fire safety measures have improved, if housing professionals feel equipped to carry out the standards required, and if not, what is preventing them from doing so.
