A vital part of the 2009 Bonfire and Fireworks campaign is the removal of illegal bonfires prior to them being lit.
Arrangements are in place with all Local Authority partners to ensure that illegal bonfires will be removed.
Reducing the number of bonfires consequently reduces:-
- Risk to the community by reducing injuries (primarily to young people)
- Risk to firefighters attending unnecessary incidents
- Risk of anti social behaviour, including attacks on emergency crews
- Risk of damage to property
To report an illegal bonfire please contact the Local Authority concerned using the contact numbers below. The more illegal bonfires we can have removed prior to ignition, the safer our community will be.
