On Sunday 5 April, the BFRS attended 12 bonfires. Two were serious fires; one a fire in a rear garden that spread to the property. 10% of the property was damaged by fire and 50% was damaged by smoke. The other was a fire involving a large amount of building materials which was left unattended. The home owner was located and advice given by the fire service and police.This is one example where the Fire Service’s resources were tied up in incidents caused by irresponsible burning. This puts unnecessary pressures on resources which could otherwise be used to deliver to attend major incidents and key prevention work.Reporting smoke nuisanceIf you wish to report smoke nuisance, please follow your local council’s advice below:
