New NFCC mobility scooter guidance now been published
New guidance from the National Fire Chiefs Council has now been published ‘mobility scooter guidance for residential buildings’.
NFCC is pleased to release this for residential buildings, which outlines considerations for responsible persons of residential buildings to help establish the safe use, storage and charging of mobility scooters. It also supplements the information in NFCC’s Specialised Housing guide.
This has been an excellent example of sector-led guidance, to ensure all those affected are involved in the production of this guide.
