BBQ safety tips:
• Make sure your barbecue is well away from sheds, fences, trees and shrubs.
• Keep a bucket of water and/or a hose pipe nearby in case of emergencies.
• NEVER use petrol or paraffin on your barbecue. Use only recognised lighters or starter fuel on cold coals in moderation.
• Keep children and pets well away from the cooking area.
• NEVER leave the barbecue unattended.
• NEVER put ashes straight into a dustbin/wheelie bin. If they’re hot they could melt the plastic and cause a fire.
