A spokesperson for North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said: “A big part of our work is being out and about delivering safe and well activities which is where we can visit people in their homes completely free of charge, and talk with them about how they can keep safe and well in their homes.
“As part of this competition we are encouraging children but also parents, carers, grandparents, aunts and uncles and guardians, to check out our short safe and well film which virtually covers some of the key safety points we’ll discuss as part of a visit.”
