☀️ Enjoy the sunshine safely, Sandwell – no fires or BBQs in parks and open spaces ❌

With warmer weather here, more people are heading outdoors to enjoy our parks and green spaces.

But dry conditions can quickly turn a small spark into a serious wildfire, risking lives and endangering wildlife and natural habitats.

Our officers will be patrolling parks and open spaces over the weekend – anyone lighting a fire or BBQ on public land risks getting a £100 fine.

✅ Help protect Sandwell’s green spaces and wildlife:

- Never drop cigarette ends
- BBQs are not permitted in our parks and open spaces
- Take all litter home – especially glass
- Report any fires immediately – call 999

⚠️ And, finally, please don’t risk your or anyone else’s life by swimming in open water to cool off. Water in lakes, ponds, canals and rivers may feel warm on the surface, but just a few feet below can be icy cold, even in the hot weather, and can very quickly cause severe cramp and hypothermia.

🌿 Let’s all do our part to keep Sandwell safe this summer.
