Keeping safe during fireworks season

12/10/2020

We love fireworks season, but it comes with its dangers. Check out our top tips on how to help keep your community safe during this period.

  • Bonfires and fireworks are not permitted on Poplar HARCA land.
  • Don’t leave flammable items on balconies, outside blocks or in communal areas.
  • Bulky items, such as fridges and mattresses, pose a fire risk. If you have arranged a free collection from Tower Hamlets Council, keep items indoors until the agreed collection day and take them back inside if not collected.
  • Place bagged waste in the URSs or bins – not next to them.
  • Report ASB to Poplar HARCA. Criminal activity should be reported to the police on 101. In an emergency, always call 999.
