The coroner's concerns
1. lack of smoke detectors in caravans
“Consideration should be given to maintaining or developing any existing programmes and, where appropriate, creating new programmes which are designed to raise awareness amongst people using or living in caravans, whether mobile or permanent, of the importance of fitting and maintaining a fully functioning smoke detector inside the caravan.”
2. unaddressed fire safety risks in caravans
“during the course of the inquest the evidence revealed matters that gave rise to concerns that circumstances creating a risk of other deaths will continue to exist in the future unless action is taken”
3. inadequate smoke detector coverage in caravans
“Fitting of Smoke Detectors in all Mobile and Static Caravans”
