Setting fire to aerosol cans is extremely dangerous and can lead to explosions, serious injuries, and rapidly spreading fires.
After an incident at Horsham Skate Park, we are urging everyone to stay safe and help prevent unnecessary fires, especially during these dry conditions.

Henfield crews attended a fire in the open yesterday evening along with other West Sussex crews.
Excellent hard work last night by crews, with the assistance of locals and knowledge of area @WestSussexFire

⚠️⚠️⚠️
The Fire Severity Index remains very high for all of West Sussex, and exceptional around Arundel, Bognor Regis and Chichester.
This measures how severe a fire could be, if a wildfire were to break out.

High temperatures and dry conditions increase the risk of wildfires. Follow our advice to stay safe.

Do you care for someone who uses oxygen therapy or medical equipment?
Oxygen fires are rare but can be intense. Don't store cannisters by exits, under stairs, or near heat sources.

If you unexpectedly fall into water, cold water shock can take your breath away. Fight the instinct to panic, tilt your head back, keep your ears submerged and spread out your arms and legs to stay afloat.

Always put candles and tea-lights into heat resistant holders and never place them near to curtains or soft furnishings. Remember that tea lights can become hot enough to melt plastic surfaces such as the surround of your bathtub. Know the fire risk.
