Appliances from the following stations have responded:

Members of the public are requested to be vigilant and be safety conscious when having barbecues or controlled burning. Always ensure that you have a means of quickly extinguishing anything that gets out of hand and remember to dispose of portable barbecues safely and ensure that they are completely cold and place in a safe position.
