Bonfire Night Warning from North Yorkshire Police

Officers have warned people of the dangers of injury ahead of 5th November.

Many displays were on Saturday night but some are on the traditional 5th November, which is this Wednesday.

North Yorkshire Police have released the following statement:

'Remember remember, have fun stay safe! 

  • If you are participating in bonfire celebrations this week please stay safe and keep others safe too. 
  • never throw fireworks (including sparklers)
  • ensure fireworks are not set off near or towards houses
  • ensure animals are safe and not distressed
  • Only adults can use fireworks
  • only buy fireworks which carry the CE mark, keep in a closed box and use one at a time. 
  • light the firework at arm's length, with a taper and stand well back!
  • Keep sparklers away from clothing and skin. 
  • wear gloves
  • keep a safe distance from fire and watch for embers!
  • stay warm and safe so you have a super enjoyable time! 
  • keep fires away from trees, hedges and sheds. 
  • never leave a lit bonfire unattended.
  • never use paraffin or petrol on a bonfire - it spreads and quickly gets dangerous!

'Stay safe and have fun!'
