Bonfire health warning

Bonfire health warning

During these unprecedented times we are together fighting a respiratory virus that puts pressure on our lungs and on our heroic emergency services.

Smoke from bonfires and other garden burning particularly affects those with underlying respiratory conditions as well as exacerbating symptoms in Covid-19 sufferers and those recovering. We are all in this together and so we ask residents to stop burning in their gardens for the duration of the pandemic.

Thank you for looking out for your neighbours and our heroes in the NHS and Fire Service.

Stop burning, save lives.
