Before you light up that bonfire it’s a good idea to check in with your local council about any specific safety rules. In some places, bonfires might be completely banned, especially when it’s dry or windy. Plus, if you’re in a densely populated area, you’ll want to think about your neighbours. After all, too much smoke or strong odours could lead to complaints or even fines.

Whenever you can, stick to burning dry, untreated wood and garden waste. Ultimately these materials burn cleanly and safely, following the bonfire night rules. Also, it’s best to keep your fire small and easy to manage. Most importantly, always keep an eye on the fire until it’s completely out. Finally, steer clear of using petrol, paraffin or any flammable liquids to ignite the fire. Instead, opt for firelighters or kindling. This way, you’ll help minimise the risk of any dangerous flare-ups.
