❓ Have you seen ads online for upcoming 'Lantern Festivals'? 👉 Whether it's at an event, or at home, we urge you not to use sky lanterns. They pose a huge fire risk, and are a danger to livestock and wildlife. 🔗 Read more from the @NFCC_FireChiefs :

It's #MythbustingMonday 🚪Myth: If a handle feels cold, the room is safe on the other side 🔥Fact: If you think there is a fire the other side of a door, don't open it, even if the handle is cold. 🚒Top tip: Close all doors at night as this can delay a fire for up to 20 minutes.
