It will only take a minute or two of your time and could save lives. This is a modern day safety issue we all need to be aware of and act upon TODAY!<\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Registered charity <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricalsafetyfirst.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Electrical Safety First<\/a> are campaigning to raise awareness of the dangers of electrical fires that children and parents face when you:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Leave your phone, tablet or laptop charging on your bed.<\/span><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Sleep with your phone under your pillow while it\u2019s charging.<\/span><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Use an cheap unbranded charger.<\/span><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Have you or the kids done any of these? I\u2019m afraid to say that I am guilty of all three and never dreamt that they could result in catastrophe!<\/p>\n<p><\/p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/1CkBn8ZidmE?rel=0\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #28d0d7;\">HOW TO AVOID ELECTRICAL FIRE HAZARDS<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #28d0d7;\">Where Are You Charging Electrical Devices?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If your house is anything like mine then you have gadgets galore such as phones, games consoles, tablets and computers. These can be great fun but potentially deadly if left charging on a bed. Bedding and pillows can lock heat in causing the electrical device to get hotter and hotter. Combine that heat with flammable materials and you\u2019ve got a potential fire. What a deadly combination!<\/p>\n<p>Not only have I been guilty of leaving things charging on the bed but I\u2019ve also used my computer in bed on my lap whilst it\u2019s been charging. I noticed that it got hot but I never dreamed it could be hot enough to start a fire! Needless to say from now on all electrical charging will be done on a hard surface!<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #28d0d7;\">What Type Of Charger Are You Using?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019m also guilty of using unbranded chargers. We never seemed to have enough chargers to hand so I bought a few cheap ones online. Little did I know that many of these chargers don\u2019t satisfy UK safety regulations and can cause serious electric shock, injury or fire. Ours are now in the bin. I\u2019m not taking any chances!<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #28d0d7;\">When Are You Charging?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Another safety issue I\u2019d never thought of was when I was putting devices on to charge. Mostly I\u2019d put them on to charge overnight or whilst I was out and not actually needing them. Electrical Safety First strongly recommend avoiding charging devices when they are unattended or overnight.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m now trying to get in the habit of putting things on to charge when we get home from school. It\u2019s a simple switch to make and means that nothing is left charging overnight and we\u2019re always on hand and awake in case the unthinkable should ever happen.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #28d0d7;\">Here are some simple steps to start doing TODAY to keep your home safe for you and your family:<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #28d0d7;\">DO make sure electrical devices are charged on a hard surface.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #28d0d7;\">DON\u2019T charge any electrical device on your bed, under a pillow or anywhere the device might overheat.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #28d0d7;\">DON\u2019T use or let children use fake or unbranded chargers. Many of these chargers do not satisfy UK safety regulations and can cause serious electric shock, injury or fire.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #28d0d7;\">DON\u2019T charge devices when they are unattended or overnight.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Electrical Safety First has more information here and a great guide for family safety here. It details the dos and don\u2019ts for charging safely in children and teenagers\u2019 bedrooms and is definitely worth a minute of your time.<\/p>\n<p>Are there electrical fire hazards lurking in your kids\u2019 bedrooms?\u00a0Be aware of the risks and make your simple changes TODAY.<\/p>\n<p>(This is a sponsored post.)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16704\" src=\"https:\/\/kidscraftroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Electrical-Fire-Hazards-square.jpg\" alt=\"ARE THERE ELECTRICAL FIRE HAZARDS IN YOUR KID'S BEDROOM?
