Outdoor fires can quickly get out of hand. Please do not to burn garden or general waste during the current pandemic. This can call fire services away from other life saving work. Help us to help you and be #WildfireAware #COVID19

During the COVID-19 pandemic we want to make sure our fire crews are always available to respond to real emergencies. Lighting a bonfire can divert crews needlessly. It can also cause an unnecessary emergency.

Most refuse fires are set deliberately.

With refuse collections happening less frequently, help us to make everyone aware that deliberate fires can have devastating consequences.

Help us keep you safe, follow our advice: https://t.co/m6QxU2E7jw

Sky lanterns pose a significant fire risk to our countryside.

This could place unnecessary pressure on the emergency services, and we would always discourage their use 🔥🚫

Please find a different way to show your support for the NHS.

We all have a lot on our minds right now.
But it's important to consider the risk of fire as we all spend more time at home.
Having a clear and safe fire escape plan for you and your family can help save lives.
Help us help you.

More than ever during the #Coronavirus outbreak, deliberate fires are an unnecessary drain on our resources.

As you #StayAtHome make sure everyone, including the younger people in your life, know that setting fires can have severe consequences.
