Bonfire Night is one of the highlights of the autumn calendar, bringing together families, friends and communities to enjoy fireworks, food and fun. It is a wonderful celebration, but it also needs planning and awareness to keep everyone safe.

Whether you are attending a local display or helping to organise one, preparation makes all the difference.

  • Keep bonfires a safe distance from buildings, trees and fences.
  • Always supervise children when fireworks are being used.
  • Avoid taking sparklers or fireworks into crowded areas.
  • Make sure there are clear access routes for emergency services if they are needed.

For those hosting larger events, safety should extend beyond the display itself. Copeland Group Services provides professional event security to keep visitors safe, manage access and protect sites before, during and after the celebrations. See our We Are Wirral case Study here!

Our EcoWatch system can also help by providing solar-powered, rapid-deployment CCTV that keeps a close watch on open spaces or temporary sites where mains power is not available.

Bonfire Night should be memorable for the right reasons. If you are organising a public display or community event and would like to discuss how to make it safe and secure, our team would be happy to help.
