Buckingham based Abbot Fire Group is delighted to once again be offering free fire extinguisher hire for local community, charity, or not-for-profit bonfire or firework events.

The company is offering 24 fire extinguishers for hire to the first callers to ring Abbot Fire Group, just mentioning this offer.

Community neighborhood bonfire

The offer is open to those locally organizing a bona fide not-for-profit or community neighborhood bonfire or firework event. Abbot Fire Group will discuss the event with the organizer, including the likely number of attendees, and ensure the fire safety requirements are covered by a suitable number of extinguishers on the night, up to a maximum of 8 fire extinguishers per event.

Nigel Walton, Director at Abbot Fire Group said: “This is the eleventh year we have run this initiative to help keep the local community safe on bonfire night. Safety is an important part of any firework or bonfire event for both the organizers and the attendees. One year one of the extinguishers had to be used to extinguisher a rogue firework, which demonstrates why we run this offer. We want the local community to enjoy the events safely.”
