Think before lighting up this bonfire night

Rent Your Home? Think Before Lighting Up This Bonfire Night

Check Your Tenancy Agreement Before lighting any fireworks or starting a bonfire, it’s essential to review your tenancy agreement. Some contracts explicitly state that fireworks and bonfires are not permitted on the property. If your contract doesn't mention it, contact your landlord or letting agent to clarify. Better safe than sorry!

Local Firework Regulations

Local Firework Regulations Each local authority has different rules regarding fireworks. As a general rule, fireworks are only allowed between 7 pm and midnight. Setting them off after midnight could result in fines or legal issues. Ensure you’re aware of the rules specific to your area to avoid unwanted consequences.

Be Considerate of Your Neighbours

Be Considerate of Your Neighbours While fireworks can be exciting, they can also be disturbing for your neighbours, especially for vulnerable individuals and pets. Fireworks can cause anxiety and fear, so be considerate and check if anyone nearby has concerns about the noise and disruptions before going ahead with your plans.

Common Sense: Assess Your Space

Common Sense: Assess Your Space If you live in a small house or flat, the space available might not be suitable for fireworks or a bonfire. A small garden or shared outdoor space is risky, as fires can easily get out of control, causing damage to nearby structures like fences or sheds. Don’t risk it—opt for safety and choose a different location.

Fireworks Can Be Dangerous

Fireworks Can Be Dangerous Every year, fireworks lead to numerous accidents. According to statistics, over 500 injuries are reported annually due to fireworks. With this in mind, always remember that fireworks are inherently dangerous. If you’re not in a controlled and secure environment, it’s best to avoid lighting them.

Attend a Public Firework Display

Attend a Public Firework Display If you don't have the proper space or permissions for a personal fireworks display, why not attend a public event instead? Public displays are not only safer and more spectacular but also more cost-effective. Plus, you won’t have to worry about disturbing your neighbours or breaking any tenancy rules.
