Firework Safety

20 September 2007

It’s that time of year again when thoughts turn to bonfire night, a good time for many but dreaded by some. Firework safety should be in everyone’s mind not least of all retailers selling them.

Many of our members in the retail sector are at at the forefront of firework sales and information for them is always welcome.

The Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (BERR), the former DTI, has upgraded its website and has an excellent section on firework safety giving information, resources, games as well as links to other useful sites.

There is information for retailers reminding them of their licence and storage obligations.

To view the website go to; BERR Firework Safety
