With temperatures set to rise again today, we would like to remind the public that using disposable BBQ’s and lighting fires on our moorlands, and within areas covered by Public Space Protection Orders (PSPO's) is illegal.
These actions massively increase the risk of wildfires, especially on warmer days. Wildfires can spread rapidly, causing serious and long lasting damage to wildlife, the environment and local communities.
Thank you to those who continue to report these illegal activities; supporting the efforts to prevent wildfires across our moorlands.
🔥 📲 Report the use of BBQ and fires on moorland by calling 999 - Ask for Fire and Rescue.
