The event was organised to co-incide with a scheduled fire training exercise by Hereford & Worcester Fire & Rescue Service at Conniston House (the training exercise enables the fire service to test how they respond to fire alarms). 

TCHG teams and other community groups such as DY10 BigLocal, provided general home safety information, enabled residents to sign up for the online tenancy service, MYaccount and get welfare reform and employment services advice.

The fire service also brought a demonstration "smoke house" which is used to show the effects of smoke in a room and is particularly useful when teaching children about what to do in the event of a fire.
