Behind the excitement of exploring new destinations lies a hidden danger that most travellers never consider – carbon monoxide poisoning. This invisible, odourless gas has tragically claimed the lives of British travellers abroad, including 24-year-old Hudson Foley who passed away while backpacking in Ecuador.

We’re proud to support the Pack Safe Appeal, a campaign launched by Hudson’s family to prevent further tragedies and encourage all travellers to pack a portable carbon monoxide detector. Through our partnership with the Safer Tourism Foundation, we’re offering 15% off our travel CO alarm with code HUDSON15 – because no family should endure such heartbreak.

What happened to Hudson Foley and why does his story matter?

Hudson Foley was living his dream. The 24-year-old from Surrey had saved for months to embark on a structured travel programme across Latin America in May 2023. He was volunteering on local projects, learning Spanish and exploring Ecuador when tragedy struck.

On 30 August 2023, Hudson passed away from carbon monoxide poisoning in homestay accommodation in Quito. He’d been feeling unwell for several days – experiencing sickness, lightheadedness and fainting spells. These symptoms were early warning signs of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Hudson’s blood contained 51.75% carbon monoxide – a lethal level when normal ranges sit between 0-5%. The invisible gas had been steadily poisoning him, and without a detector present there was no way to know the danger lurking in his accommodation.

Hudson’s mother, Cathy Foley launched the Pack Safe Appeal campaign to honour her son’s memory and prevent other families from experiencing such devastating loss. The campaign calls for travellers to pack portable CO alarms, and for the travel industry to prioritise carbon monoxide safety in accommodations.

Where can I buy a travel carbon monoxide detector?

You can purchase the UltraFire ULLCO10 directly from the Safelincs website, where we’re offering 15% off with code HUDSON15 in support of the Pack Safe Appeal. This brings the single unit price down from £21.77 to £18.50 (inc VAT), with further savings available on multiple units.

We’re also making travel safety more accessible by partnering with InMotion, the UK’s largest airport-based electronics retailer. You’ll find our travel CO detectors available at all InMotion stores across UK airports, retailing at £25. This means you can pick up this life-saving device even if you forgot to pack one before travelling.

InMotion stores, part of WH Smith PLC, specialise in airport-based technology retail, making them the perfect location to grab last-minute travel safety equipment. Whether you’re departing from Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester or any other major UK airport, you can secure your carbon monoxide protection before boarding.

How common is carbon monoxide poisoning amongst travellers?

Carbon monoxide poisoning among British travellers abroad happens more frequently than most people realise. Hudson’s case represents part of a troubling pattern that spans decades, with young people particularly at risk due to their tendency to stay in budget accommodations with potentially inadequate safety standards.

The Safer Tourism Foundation, which supports the Pack Safe Appeal, was originally established following the carbon monoxide deaths of Bobby and Christi Shepherd nearly 20 years ago. That these tragedies continue to occur highlights how little progress has been made in protecting travellers from this preventable danger.

Many countries lack the strict safety regulations we take for granted in the UK. While carbon monoxide alarms are legally required in UK rental properties, this protection doesn’t extend to holiday accommodations abroad. Gas appliances may be poorly maintained, ventilation systems inadequate and safety checks infrequent or non-existent.

What makes carbon monoxide so dangerous for travellers?

Carbon monoxide poses a unique threat because it’s completely undetectable by human senses. You can’t see, smell, taste or hear this toxic gas – making it impossible to know when you’re being poisoned without proper detection equipment.

The gas is produced when fuel-burning appliances don’t operate correctly. Common sources in travel accommodations include boilers, water heaters, cookers, generators and heating systems. Poor ventilation or blocked flues can cause CO to build up to dangerous levels within enclosed spaces.

Early symptoms mirror common travel ailments – headaches, dizziness, nausea and fatigue. Many travellers dismiss these warning signs as jet lag, food poisoning, a hangover or adjustment to new climates. By the time symptoms become severe, it may be too late.

Carbon monoxide works by binding to haemoglobin in your blood more readily than oxygen, effectively suffocating you from within. High concentrations can cause unconsciousness and death within minutes, making rapid detection and evacuation crucial for survival.

Which portable carbon monoxide detector should I pack for travel?

Our UltraFire ULLCO10 Travel Carbon Monoxide Detector with Strap was designed specifically with travellers in mind. This compact, lightweight alarm offers comprehensive protection whether you’re staying in hostels, Airbnbs, caravans, boats or camping.

The detector is Kitemarked to both BS EN 50291-1 (for homes and static caravans) and BS EN 50291-2 (for caravans, motorhomes, camping, boats and general travel), giving you confidence in its reliability across different accommodation types.

Key features that make this ideal for travel include:

Portability and convenience

• Compact, lightweight design fits easily in any backpack
• Includes travel strap for clipping to bags or hanging in tents
• Can be wall-mounted or used free-standing
• 10-year sealed lithium battery eliminates the need for replacements

Comprehensive protection

• Visual LED indicators for power (green), alarm (red) and fault (amber)
• Separate test and silence buttons for easy maintenance
• End-of-life audible warning at 10 years

Quality and reliability

• BSI Kitemark approval ensures British safety standards
• 10-year product life with matching warranty
• Tested and certified for multiple environments

The complete package includes the detector, sealed battery, travel strap, wall mounting kit and comprehensive instruction manual.

How should I use my travel carbon monoxide detector?

Using your travel CO detector effectively requires some basic planning and awareness. As soon as you arrive at any accommodation, set up your detector in the sleeping area, ideally at head height when lying down. The travel strap allows you to hang it from bedposts, tent guy-ropes or cabin hooks.

Test your detector when you first set it up and familiarise yourself with the different LED indicators. Green means normal operation, red indicates a CO alarm, and amber signals a fault. The separate test button lets you verify the alarm is working, something you should do each time you move to new accommodation.

If your detector sounds, follow the GAS protocol immediately:

• Go outside into fresh air
• Ask for medical help and mention suspected CO poisoning
• Service – report the issue to accommodation providers

Don’t ignore symptoms like headaches, dizziness or nausea while travelling. These could indicate CO exposure, particularly if multiple people in your group experience similar symptoms simultaneously.

Remember to keep your detector with you throughout your journey. Different accommodations may have varying risk levels, and you never know when that small device could save your life.

What impact has the Pack Safe Appeal achieved so far?

The Pack Safe Appeal has gained significant traction since its launch, with support from various organisations committed to travel safety. Chelsea Football Club honoured Hudson’s memory at a home match, reflecting his lifelong support for the team. The Latin American Travel Association has incorporated CO safety messaging into their regional safety schemes.

Parliamentary support came from Barry Sheerman, former MP and Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Carbon Monoxide Group, who highlighted the ongoing need for better awareness of CO risks abroad. Hudson’s family appeared on BBC Breakfast to share their story and promote portable CO alarm awareness to a national audience.

The campaign has successfully raised awareness among travel companies, online guides and government bodies about the need to communicate carbon monoxide risks more effectively. Travel providers are beginning to include CO alarms in recommended kit lists and provide safety briefings to customers.

Most importantly, the campaign encourages individual travellers to take personal responsibility for their safety by packing portable CO detectors. Every traveller who packs an alarm potentially saves not just their own life but also those of their travel companions.

The campaign saved the life of Emily Key and her travel companions when it alerted them to a carbon monoxide leak in their accommodation. 

“I managed to persuade my rather reluctant daughter to take a CO alarm with her, on her recent trip to South America. I am so glad I did because only a couple of weeks later my daughter phoned me from a Bariloche hostel (Chile) to explain that the alarm had woken her up with its insistent beeping. She woke her friends and got them all to safety. I can’t thank Cathy (Pack Safe Appeal) enough for highlighting this potentially fatal situation and that having bought an alarm I saved my daughter and her backpacker friends’ lives. Emily is now in Brazil having fun in Rio! I’m not sure that she’ll want to come home.”
Louise Key (Emily’s Mum)

Make sure your home is a safe space for you, your family and friends over the festive period by following our Christmas safety advice. Christmas trees, decorations and celebrations can increase the risk of a fire starting in your home. Following these Christmas safety tips and having some key safety items to hand will help to ensure you can relax and enjoy the festive season.

Christmas fire safety tips

Christmas trees

Real Christmas trees catch fire very quickly when they start to dry out. Always stand your tree in water to keep it fresh for as long as possible and position your tree away from heat sources including open fires. Never smoke or place candles near your Christmas tree.

Keep a Water Mist Fire Extinguisher close to hand. This versatile extinguisher will quickly and effectively extinguish a Christmas tree fire as well as most other fire risks found in the home including electrical fires. Water mist extinguishers contain only deionized water and so do not leave any messy residue to clean up. They are non-toxic, so you don’t have to worry about children or pets coming into contact with the extinguishing agent.

It is also advisable to spray your real Christmas tree with fire retardant spray to prevent it from catching alight.

Christmas lights & electrical safety

Christmas tree lights (or fairy lights) can cause a fire or could trigger a spark which might ignite your Christmas tree if they are not properly maintained or used. Be careful no to overload plug sockets and extension leads. Use the electrical socket calculator if you are unsure. Check your fuses are the right type and if the bulbs blow, replace them straight away. Never leave fairy lights on when you go out or go to bed.

Replace Christmas lights straight away if you notice they are damaged or the electrical wire casing is cracked. When buying new Christmas lights, look for the CE mark to ensure they comply with European safety standards and read all labelling and instructions carefully before use. Watch the British Standards Institute Christmas light safety videos for further information.

Candles & decorations

Decorate your home with care to reduce the risk of a fire starting. Many Christmas decorations could easily catch fire so make sure they are not near heaters, open fires or candles. Never place decorations immediately above or around the fireplace when it is lit.

Place candles away from children or pets so they don’t get knocked over and ensure soft furnishing such as curtains or blankets are not nearby. Always make sure you put candles out before going to bed or leaving the house.

Cooking fires

More than half of all accidental fires in the home are started by cooking. Usually this is because a cooker, hob or grill has been left unattended. On Christmas day, there can be a lot of distractions whilst preparing the Christmas dinner. Keep children and pets away from the stove and never leave your cooking unattended. Follow these basic cooking safety tips to ensure a fire doesn’t ruin your Christmas. Keep a fire blanket in the kitchen to quickly tackle any cooking, clothing or waste bin fires that start and have a burns kit to hand just in case anyone suffers from a burn or scold.

Never cook if you have been drinking alcohol, especially if you feel tired or drunk. Drinking alcohol causes drowsiness, slower reactions and confusion and will affect your coordination. You could fall asleep whilst cooking, and are more likely to knock pans or spill hot oil if you have reduced coordination.

Fire detection – plan ahead to stay safe

Making sure you have working smoke alarms fitted in your home prior to the Christmas period could save your life. Fit a heat alarm in the kitchen to quickly detect cooking fires without causing false alarms (heat alarms respond to a sharp increase in temperature not smoke and so will not sound if you burn the toast!). Test all alarms before Christmas and replace the alarm or battery if required. For further fire safety tips and advice tailored to your home, try the free online home fire safety check.

Carbon monoxide safety tips for Christmas

During the festive period, there could be an increased risk of carbon monoxide gas in your home. Using log burners, open fires, heaters or boilers that have not been maintained throughout the year could produce dangerous levels of carbon monoxide.

Sweep chimneys and service gas or solid fuel appliances such as boilers, heaters or cookers prior to use during the Christmas period. Fit a carbon monoxide alarm in every room where there is a gas or solid fuel appliance, or open fire.

Carbon monoxide gas is also known as the ‘silent killer’ as it can cause death and serious illness in people and pets. Get to know the signs and symptoms of CO poisoning and share them with your friends and family. Always ensure you have a working carbon monoxide detector in your home to alert you, your household and visitors to the presence of this dangerous gas.

FAQs

How do I keep my pet safe at Christmas?

Christmas can be an exciting or anxious time for pets due to a change in routine, an increase in noise and people, and lots of new and interesting objects to stimulate the senses! Follow the RSPCA’s advice on keeping pets calm at Christmas and keep candles and decorations out of reach. Never leave your pet unattended near heaters or open fires and keep them out of the kitchen when you are cooking to avoid any mishaps or distractions.

Why are Christmas trees a fire hazard?

Real Christmas trees can catch fire very quickly especially when they start to dry out. Buy your real tree closer to Christmas so it doesn’t dry out too much and keep it well watered at the base. Artificial Christmas trees can also be a fire hazard if their flame retardant coating has worn off – check the lifespan of your artificial tree and replace if required.

Is it safe to leave Christmas tree lights on all night?

No, it is not safe to leave Christmas tree lights on all night. These lights can get hot and could start a fire. Switch Christmas tree or fairy lights off when you go to bed or leave the house.

What fire extinguisher can be used on Christmas trees?

A Water Mist Fire Extinguisher is the best fire extinguisher to have at home during the festive period. You can use a Water Mist Extinguisher to tackle all common household fires including fires involving Christmas trees and fairy lights. This type of extinguisher dispenses a fine de-ionised water mist. This is non-toxic and will not leave any messy residue to clean up.

Just added to Britannia Fire’s range of P50 Service-Free Fire Extinguishers is the Fluorine-Free A-Foam Fire Extinguisher. Further to this, a P50 B-Foam Fire Extinguisher is coming soon. With the phase out of AFFF foam expected to begin imminently, these Fluorine-Free Foams provide a more environmental alternative.

What is the difference between AFFF foam and fluorine-free?

AFFF Foam contains PFAS chemicals that have been identified as being harmful to the environment, people, and wildlife. The most harmful component of PFAS chemicals is fluorine compounds. Some of these compounds have been discontinued by law since 2020, and other legal restrictions are expected to follow shortly. In light of this action, Britannia Fire have developed the P50 fluorine-free foam as an environmental alternative. This extinguisher contains no harmful fluorine compounds, and therefore will not be subject to PFAS regulations or other forthcoming regulations.

Is the P50 Fluorine-Free an eco-extinguisher?

The P50 fluorine-free foams are free from any harmful fluoro compounds, making it a true eco-foam extinguisher. They are non-toxic, more environmentally friendly than AFFF foam, and will not be subject to any changes relating to the PFAS regulations.

It is important to check the firefighting medium in an extinguisher that is called ‘eco-foam’ or ‘enviro-foam’. Previously, these terms have been used to refer to a group of AFFF foam extinguishers that contain lower fluorine content. Any amount of fluorine is harmful to the environment; these extinguishers should not be considered to be ‘eco’ or ‘environmental’.

Is fluorine-free foam a like-for-like replacement to AFFF foam?

In many situations, the P50 Fluorine-Free A-foam can be used as a direct replacement for AFFF foam extinguishers to tackle class A and electrical fires. The 6ltr extinguisher has ratings of 34A, 13B, and electrical equipment up to 1000 Volts. Where there is a high risk of class B rating fires (flammable liquids like oil, alcohol, or diesel), additional protection may be required. This will soon be provided by the P50 B-Foam Extinguisher which has ratings of 27A, 144B, 25F, and electrical equipment up to 1000 Volts.

During the pandemic, funding became available for schools in Scotland and Wales to improve air circulation and reduce the spread of the virus. SAMHE, a government backed research project monitoring air quality in schools, is keen to further investigate the consequences of poor air quality on pupils’ health and concentration. With this issue high on the agenda, we look at how to identify poor air quality and the simple measures available to improve ventilation in schools where action is required.

Identifying Issues: Monitoring Air Quality in Schools

SAHME is offering a free air quality monitor to schools across the UK. The devices measure carbon dioxide (CO2), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) particulate matter (PM), temperature and relative humidity, with data available to both teachers and pupils. The data from each monitor is also recorded on a national database, available to SAHME, which will be analysed to understand and improve long-term air quality for all schools.

Schools in the scheme which monitor trends in air quality across their site will be able to identify areas in which ventilation improvements need to be made. SAHME acknowledges that in some areas, mechanical ventilation systems may be required. For many areas, however, natural ventilation from opening windows and doors is enough to reduce air pollutants to acceptable levels.

Improve air circulation with a fire door retainer

Fire doors are critical to any building’s infrastructure, but they can be a barrier to good air circulation. Propping or wedging open fire doors, or cutting the bottom off a fire door is, however, illegal, and could be dangerous as the door may fail to prevent the spread of fire.

Fireco’s Pro Fire Door Retainer System can improve ventilation without compromising fire safety. The fire door retainer devices hold fire doors open safely, allowing air to circulate throughout the building. Dorgard Pro and Freedor Pro retainers can be used to hold doors open at any angle, allowing for adjustments during colder months. Doors are released to close as soon as the fire alarm sounds, protecting pupils, staff and property.

The fire door retainer devices are wireless and battery-operated, meaning they can be installed with minimum disruption. In nurseries, primary schools, SEN schools, and other noisy environments, the Pro system is ideal. The ProHub control panel is hardwired directly into the building’s fire alarm panel which eliminates the possibility of false activations.

Allow ventilation with an intumescent grill

Air flow can be increased in schools by installing fire-proof ventilation grilles into fire doors. This should only be done after checking that the fire door can be adapted to include intumescent grilles. Due to the varying construction of fire doors, some doors cannot be safely altered in this way. Some doors may need an additional hard wood liner fitted in the newly-created aperture. Fire doors that require cold smoke seals may not be suitable for installing intumescent grilles. As the grilles rely on heat from fire to activate them to swell, cold smoke may be able to pass through before this happens. Always consult your fire risk assessment for the type of seals that are required before having work carried out on your fire doors. Any work to fire doors should be carried out by a competent person.

Air transfer vents fitted into fire doors should always be fire-rated. Intumescent grilles are specially designed to swell when exposed to heat, closing the gap and maintaining the fire resistance of the door. A standard air transfer vent would not do this and so would invalidate the fire door certification and fail to stop the spread of fire.

Safelincs fire door services

If you are unsure about whether your fire doors are fit for purpose, or require support to install fire door retainers contact our fire door team on 01507 464185 or email firedoors@safelincs.co.uk. Our qualified engineers can visit your site anywhere in the UK to inspect existing doors or carry out installation work.

FAQs

Is it safe to cut the bottom off a fire door to improve ventilation?

Fire doors should never be cut to improve ventilation. The maximum gap under a fire door is 8-10mm depending on the door specification. A gap any larger than that could result in the door failing to prevent the spread of fire. Some fire doors can be trimmed to fit if they are too tall for the door opening. Always consult the manufacturer to ensure it is possible to trim the door without affecting its fire rating. Great care should be taken when altering fire doors so that the door certification is not invalidated.

Are fire door retainers suitable for external fire doors?

No, fire door retainers are not suitable for external use. However, it is worth noting that in many cases, final exit doors do not need to be fire rated. If existing external/final exit doors are not fire rated, they are not fire doors. These can therefore remain open to improve a classroom’s ventilation.

There is no solution for retaining final exit doors which are also fire rated. If ventilation is insufficient in this instance, a mechanical ventilation system may be required.

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are used in many devices now found in our homes and workplaces. Laptops, mobile phones, cameras, e-scooters, power tools and electric cars are all powered by rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Whilst the chances of a lithium-ion battery fire are relatively low, the prevalence of these batteries and the ferocity with which they burn presents a new fire risk that is difficult to tackle with traditional methods. So, can you extinguish lithium-ion battery fires if they occur? We look at what fire safety technology is available to tackle them.

Lithium-ion Fire Extinguisher

There are 2 types of fire extinguisher to tackle lithium-ion battery fires that occur in items such as mobile phones, laptops and power tools.

The Lithco LB6 Fire Extinguisher is a water-based extinguisher with an additive called ‘P Foam’. The agent in these extinguishers is specially designed to penetrate through the outer casing of electrical devices to the source of the fire (the battery). The Lithco LB6 has been rigorously tested and is proven to be very effective when fighting li-ion battery fires. The Lithco LB6 is suitable for use on live electrical equipment (up to 1000v). It also effectively extinguishes class A fires making it a versatile unit.

The other type of lithium-ion fire extinguisher uses an Aqueous Vermiculite Dispersion (AVD) agent to surround and cut off the burning battery cells.

Lithco 6ltr Lithium-Ion Battery Fire Extinguisher

Designed specifically for use on rechargeable lithium-ion battery fires, the LB6 fire extinguisher satisfies modern fire risks in a cost-effective, multi-purpose solution.

• Designed for UPS systems, laptops, power tools, and bulk device chargers

Electric Car Fire Blanket

Due to the intense nature of electric car fires and the toxic fumes emitted, they are notoriously difficult to tackle. The Electric Car Fire Blanket from Bridgehill is designed to contain the fire to prevent flames and flying materials from spreading to nearby vehicles and buildings. As well as containing the fire, the fire blanket stops oxygen from getting to the fire, therefore controlling it further. Designed for use by the fire service or in parking lots, at charging stations or on car ferries, we recommend this car fire blanket is used by trained personnel only.

Lithium-ion Battery Safe

The Phoenix Battery Commander range provides safe storage and a protected charging point for li-ion batteries and devices. Heat activated seals contain any fire within the safe and also protect the safe contents from an external fire. For further protection, an optional fire extinguisher, smoke detector or alarm can be fitted.

Extinguishing Lithium-ion Battery Fires

The lithium-ion extinguishers and containment featured in this blog provide some solutions to this modern fire risk. Great care must always be taken when tackling lithium-ion battery fires as lithium-ion burns quickly and intensely and emits toxic fumes. If in any doubt, always contact the fire service as soon as possible to deal with the blaze and evacuate the area.

FAQs

What can lithium-ion extinguishers be used for?

Lithium-ion extinguishers can be used to tackle fires in any item that is powered by a lithium-ion battery. This includes rechargeable devices such as mobile phones and laptops, power tools or electric bikes or e-scooters amongst others. Lithium-ion fire extinguishers are not suitable for use on electric cars. This is because of the large quantity of extinguishing agent that would be required to tackle such large fires. Instead, an electric car fire blanket could be used to control and contain the fire.

What fire extinguisher should be used for lithium-ion batteries?

There are two types of fire extinguisher that have been specifically developed for putting out lithium-ion battery fires. The Lithco LB6 Fire Extinguisher will effectively extinguish a lithium-ion battery fire in handheld devices, laptops and power tools plus other lithium-ion battery powered items. A car fire blanket will contain and control a lithium-ion battery fire in an electric or hybrid vehicle.
