Webinar: Providing Clarity on Technology's Role in Fire Safety in Social Housing

Continuing to fulfil its mission to protect and save lives with innovative, cutting-edge safety technology, experts in connected technology, FireAngel, is partnering with fire and security industry content website IFSEC, to host a webinar on 14^th September at 11am, to discuss how the integration of technology can manage fire safety risk in social housing.

With an estimated 43% of social housing residents living with a long-term disability, greater safeguards are needed to ensure social residents are better protected from fire risk. This is recognised in The Charter for Social Housing Residents: Social Housing White Paper (November 2020) and the Fire Safety Act 2021 which set out the intention to make landlords more accountable for residents' fire safety.

During the webinar, hear the professional perspectives and opinions of the following experts, as they explore how IoT is on course to transform the fire safety industry.

o  Nick Rutter, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer, FireAngel

o  Fazilet Hadi, Head of Policy, Disability Rights UK

o Jason Avery, Assistant Director for Prevention and Protection, Hampshire & Isle of Wight Fire & Rescue   Service (HIWFRS) 

o  Ian Moore, Chief Executive Office, Fire Industry Association

Listeners will take away a clear understanding of how connected technology can provide an essential, resident-centric safety net through the remote monitoring of heat and smoke alarms and AI analysis of data from individual properties.
