St Austell area at 10/04/2021 16:56

This afternoon a crew from St Austell have been mobilised to 2 bonfires in different locations that have got out of control and spread to surrounding areas.

Due to the current dry weather it is advisable to consider whether it is really necessary to have a bonfire and if you still wish to proceed then ensure that you have put in place all necessary precautions to stop any fire spread.

If you are having a controlled burning please notify Critical Control on 02031622240.
