Resident dies in LLC village – time to prepare for winter

Every year retirement villages suffer an average of six fires in winter across Australia. It is perhaps timely to again alert residents to be aware of the hazards of heaters and kitchen fires, plus replacing batteries in smoke alarms.

Last week a 62 year old male died as result of a kitchen fire at 2.30am at the LLC Pacific palms Home Village in Burpengary, north of Brisbane.
