HISTORY: Our brief history of UK socket safety has been moved to the References page.
FatallyFlawed.org.uk was founded by two professional engineers:
We are from different parts of the country and came together in an attempt to raise awareness after we had each encountered the use of “safety socket covers” in our respective churches. As engineers we were horrified to realise that ignorance of actual electrical safety was leading to parents and others making flawed decisions in what they thought was the best interests of children in their care. 
FatallyFlawed.org.uk is delighted to announce that Dr Adam Hart-Davis, author and broadcaster, is the Patron of our campaign.
Dr Hart-Davis has received many honours, of particular relevance is that he was the first recipient of The Public Promotion of Engineering Medal awarded by the Royal Academy of Engineering for his work in bringing an understanding of engineering to a wider public.
Fatally Flawed.org.uk is privileged to have the benefit of specialist advice from a panel of experts in a number of relevant fields. These include:
