How to Safely Enjoy Fireworks in Small Gardens

Fireworks are a lot of fun but it's important to remember that they are explosive and dangerous if not handled properly. So, before lighting any fireworks, it's important to follow these key safety guidelines.

• Designate a Firing Zone: Create a designated area for setting off the fireworks. Make sure it's a safe distance from spectators and nearby structures and gives you plenty of space to move around.

• Clear the Area: Make sure you remove anything flammable from around the area where you'll setting up and firing your fireworks.

• Use Stable Platforms: Place fireworks on stable, non-flammable surfaces to prevent any tilting or tipping. Rocket tubes are great additions for firing rockets safely.

• Light Your Fireworks Safely: Portfires or 'Firework Lighters' are ideal for lighting fireworks. This long, thin, hand-held item burns with a very hot flame for four minutes plus which makes lighting fireworks easier and safer

• Keep Water Handy: Have a bucket of water or a hose nearby to extinguish any sparks or embers and for the little ones to put their sparklers in when they're finished.

• Follow Instructions: Always read and follow the manufacturer's instructions for each firework in your display.

Remember, safety should always be the top priority when enjoying fireworks, especially in smaller outdoor spaces.
