FIFE CARES - FREE HOME SAFETY CHECK

Fife Cares works throughout Fife to address the safety and security concerns of young families, older people and vulnerable groups. Clients are visited in their own homes and offered advice and equipment that is tailored to their individual needs. Where needed, safety and security equipment is installed free of charge by either Fife Council Building Services or by Scottish Security. Fife Cares' success is built on the enthusiasm and commitment of a wide range of partner services from across the private, public and voluntary sectors. Most of the services provided are already available, but Fife Cares brings them together, raises their profile and provides a single point of access for clients. DPHS(F) has referred customers in the past for assistance via Fife Cares. If you think the service can be of benefit to you then contact them to request a FREE check on 01592 599599 Fife Community Safety Partnership's Fife Cares service has won a top award at the 2010 Fife Partnership Excellence Awards.
