Take extra care when you’re tired, taking prescription drugs or if you’ve been drinking alcohol. Use proper ashtrays, which can’t tip over and stub cigarettes out properly.

Don't balance cigars or cigarettes on the edge of an ashtray, or anything else – they can tip and fall as they burn away and cause a fire. Don’t leave lit pipes or cigarettes unattended.

Always empty ashtrays carefully. Make sure smoking materials are out, cold and preferably wet them before throwing into a bin – never use a wastepaper basket. Keep matches and lighters out of children’s reach, and buy child resistant lighters.

Never smoke if you use healthcare equipment like medical oxygen or an air flow pressure relief mattress. If you use paraffin-based emollient creams, ask for non-flammable alternatives instead. Consider additional safety measures such as fire retardant bedding or nightwear.
