Can you see us? The clocks have changed and so has visibility on our roads.
As we settle into darker mornings and evenings, it’s easy to forget that your usual route might now come with new risks.
🚗 Drivers and cyclists - slow down, stay alert, clean your lights and make sure you’re visible.
🚶‍♀️ Pedestrians - wear something bright, use lights, and stick to safe paths.

🎃 Pumpkin Safety Tips 🎃 Carving pumpkins is a Halloween tradition, but it's important to stay safe while creating your spooky masterpiece.
💡 We recommend using battery-operated lights instead of candles
🕯️ If using a candle, never leave it unattended and keep it away from decorations and costumes
🍂 Place finished pumpkins securely away from doorways and escape routes
🎃 Always carve pumpkins on a stable surface and cut away from your body
👧 Young children should help scoop out the pumpkin rather than use sharp tools

Please stay fire-safe this Halloween 👻

Halloween costumes are part of the fun, but they can be a real fire risk. Please read and share our tips on choosing costumes carefully.
⚠️Always look for costumes that carry the UKCA or CE mark, showing they meet relevant safety standards.
🕯️Keep capes, veils and loose clothing away from naked flames, especially pumpkins and candles.
🔥Avoid highly flammable materials if making a costume at home
🔦Add reflective accessories or carry a torch to help improve visibility after dark.

Today, Wednesday 9th September, we join the nation in honouring those who have lost their lives serving our communities for Emergency Services Day (999 Day). At 9:00 am, we'll hold a two-minute silence to remember the dedication and bravery of emergency service personnel.
We invite you to join us in this moment of reflection. Today, we'd also love to hear your messages of support for the emergency service personnel who continue to protect our communities every day.
