All landlords, including Camden Council, must carry out fire risk assessments on any properties with shared communal areas.
A fire risk assessment looks at:
- how safe a property is
- what the fire risks are
- recommendations on how to improve fire safety
The recommendations must be acted on to fulfill the highest standard of fire safety.
Fire risk assessments for registered, high-rise residential buildings
We have published a fire risk assessment for each of our registered high-rise residential buildings.

Outstanding fire risk assessment actions
In 2023, the Social Housing Regulator served a regulatory notice to Camden Council. The notice was related to the number of fire risk assessment actions that were outstanding at council homes.
We have entered into a Voluntary Undertaking with the regulator to complete the outstanding actions. This includes an action plan for continuous improvement that is happening across the Council.
From January 2024, we will report monthly on our progress in completing the outstanding actions:
