Make sure our firefighters don't "poppin" unexpectedly and keep your chimneys and flues clean and well maintained.
It's #ChimneyFireSafetyWeek as we start to see the nights drawing in and the weather taking a chillier turn, we're reminding you to take care when using open fires.
It’s a busy week ahead with children heading back to school. When you get the opportunity to sit down with a cuppa and put together your to do list. Please add “getting your chimney swept” for all wood burning stove and real fire owners.#staysafe👍
