    I don't have a fire extinguisher, I simply have the fire blanket that we are required to have. It was never questioned during my pre-reg inspection. Hopefully someone will be along soon to clarify for certain but I'm pretty sure its only the blanket you need. x

    I had my pr-reg on monday and don't have a fire extinguisher. Mrs O did check I had a fire blanket and that it was hung up ready.
    I have been told/ read somewhere that if a fire broke out our priority is to evacuate and phone 999, not to tackle the fire itself.

    In the free resources section of the forum there is loads of information about 2014 changes as well as in some of the threads. Remember to check the Childcare Register requirements as well as the EYFS ones.

    It really wasn't as bad as I was expecting. Good Luck

    Fire blanket required however local fire station state do not attempt to put out a fire as more people are injured doing this. They advise evacuate and ring for them x
