A decade of helping keep the local community safe on bonfire night

Abbot Fire Group is thrilled to celebrate 10 years of offering free fire extinguishers for hire to local community, charity, or not-for-profit bonfire or firework events. The company is once again offering 24 fire extinguishers for hire to the first callers to ring Abbot Fire Group on 01280 824111, just mentioning this offer.

The offer is open to those locally organising a bona fide not-for-profit or community neighbourhood bonfire or firework event. Abbot Fire Group will discuss the event with the organiser, including the likely number of attendees, and ensure the fire safety requirements are covered by a suitable number of extinguishers on the night, up to a maximum of eight fire extinguishers per event.

Nigel Walton, Director at Abbot Fire Group said: “I’m delighted we have been able to support the local community with this initiative over the past ten years. Whilst bonfire and firework events are enjoyable, safety is an important part of these events, for both the organisers and the attendees. In the years we have been running this offer, an extinguisher was used one year at an event to extinguish a rogue firework, which demonstrates why we run this initiative.”
