Keep you and your family safe – Hook it, Don’t Cook it
Lots of people admit they’ve accidentally caught a tea towel (or other item) alight after leaving it too close to the hob.
To help reduce the chance of a fire in your home, we’re encouraging you to follow this simple advice – hook or store your tea towels at least 50cm (about an arm’s length) away from the hob.
