Kent Fire and Rescue Service is urging all residents to stay safe this Christmas and ensure that the celebration doesn't end in tragedy. Latest figures from the Fire Kills campaign show a rise in the number of accidental fire deaths and injuries over the festive period. In 2008 there were 33,000 accidental house fires, 10% of which occurred in the run up to Christmas Day.
Kent Trading Standards have received reports concerning a company offering free benefits advice. Although the advice is free there is a cost to this service. If consumers contact the company then they will visit the consumer in their home and fill out forms on their behalf, with regards to any benefits they may be entitled to.
Southeastern trains have announced details of their modified service over the holiday period. In order to allow Network Rail to carry out essential maintenance work, as always, Southeastern services will be affected over Christmas and the New Year.
