Bonfire safety advice

What to do Always check that no children or animals are hiding in the bonfire before lighting. Keep some buckets of water nearby in case of emergency and to damp down after the event. Bonfires built on council land without permission will be removed. Make sure all pets are inside at all times. Alcohol and fireworks do not mix and may lead to injury. Never throw fireworks. Make sure everyone is standing at least 10 meters away from the fires.

Have a Safe Bonfire Night! Please consider attending an organised event rather than risking your safety by having your own bonfire.
