NFRS warns of increased risk of fire when drinking	Enjoy the summer safely	https://www.notts-fire.gov.uk/nfrs-news/Pages/Alcohol-related.aspx	NFRS warns of increased risk of fire when drinking	<p>While many people will be enjoying a drink this summer, Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service is warning people that alcohol can increase the risk of a fire. </p><p>Drinking increases the likelihood of a fire, particularly from cooking or cigarettes, because it inhibits the ability to make safe decisions. It also affects the ability to recognise, and respond appropriately to, the signs of a fire. Once a fire has started, alcohol can heighten feelings of disorientation, making it difficult to escape.</p><p>Fire Investigation Officer Bobbie-Jay Slack said: "Sadly, we have seen the fatal consequences of alcohol-related fires and don't want anyone else to suffer a similar fate. If you've been drinking, there is the potential for things to go wrong - when your attention stops, fire can start. We want people to enjoy themselves, this summer, but ask that they do so safely. </p><p>"We would urge people to think twice about attempting to cook after consuming alcohol and, perhaps, order a takeaway instead. Equally, if they've been drinking, people should be extra careful to make sure they dispose of smoking materials properly or, even better, not smoke at all."<br></p>

Thank you to staff and students for actively engaging with the workshop and taking a keen interest in the work of our fire crews.”</p><p>Michelle Hackett, Director of Sixth Form at Dukeries Academy, said: “Students have got a lot from this workshop. It comes at an important time, as with many students starting to learn to drive, this supports their learning.</p><p>“We have had the opportunity to hear from lots of different perspectives and services. We look forward to running this programme again.”<br></p>
