Free Smoke Alarm and Battery Replacement

Published

Fire & Rescue NSW (FRNSW) is providing a free Smoke Alarm and Battery Replacement (SABRE) program to seniors or people with a disability now in NSW.

If you are eligible for this program, a firefighter can visit your home to install a battery-operated smoke alarm or even change your existing smoke alarm batteries if you are unable to do so yourself. The service is free, but you must supply the battery operated smoke alarms and batteries.

Eligibility is only if you are frail or aged over 65, or have a disability, do not have any access to family, friends or neighbours who can assist you and you must be living in your own or privately rented home in a FRNSW fire district.
