Today we thought we'd share a little Bonfire Night Safety with you all before tonight's celebrations begin!
DO's:
- Position the bonfire well away from houses, sheds, garages, fences, overhead cables, trees and of course our awnings, pergolas and patio roofs!
- Make sure the bonfire is stable and will not collapse
- Ensure everyone is a safe distance away from the fire and ensure children are supervised AT ALL TIMES
- Keep buckets of water, a hose or an extinguisher around in case of any mishaps
- Pour water on the remains of the bonfire before coming indoors
- Keep all pets indoors, windows and blinds closed and minimise noise as much as possible.
- Wear gloves when using sparklers
- Check for any small wild animals before you light the bonfire
- Light fireworks at arms length using a taper
DONT's:
- leave the bonfire unattended
- burn things like tyres, cannisters, plastics, foam filled furniture, materials etc.
- Light or store fireworks/sparklers near the bonfire.
- Use flammable liquids to start the bonfire
- Go near a firework after it has been lit - even if it does not go off
- Touch fireworks after they have gone off
- Touch sparklers after they have gone out
Stay Safe and have a lovely evening
