1/3 We've joined forces with Hampshire & Isle of Wight Fire & Rescue Service and Community Pharmacy South Central to launch a safety campaign around the fire risks of emollients, like creams and lotions, which can act as an accelerant when absorbed into clothing and exposed to naked flames or other heat sources.
