⚠️🔥 We've had two fires this week in our children's play parks. It is incredibly dangerous and irresponsible to play with fire in this dry weather. We would like to remind all parents to be cautious if their children are bringing out lighters/matches etc. We would also like to remind members of the public not to use BBQs, throw cigarette butts, or litter on any of our parks and open spaces. Please call 999 if you notice any fires.
