Free Electric Blanket Testing in Oxfordshire
Get your electric blanket tested for free by our partnership group of organisations. They include Oxfordshire County Council Trading Standards, Fire Service, all 5 Oxfordshire District Councils, Volunteer Driver Service and Age Uk Oxfordshire.
We have offered this service for 25 years this autumn and from the previous years testing we know it is as valuable today as it was in the first few years.
In 2025 we tested 920 blankets and over 36% failed the safety test; showing how important it is that we keep offering this service.
As part of our winter safety program, we’re offering free electric blanket testing to all Oxfordshire residents. Ensure your blanket is safe and warm for the upcoming season.
