The firework season has started as we head into Autumn. Our first this year was at Northiam where our responders manned road closures to ensure the safety of the many families enjoying the parade, bonfire and the spectacular fireworks. All went well despite Storm Amy.

Our teams have been out throughout the Fireworks season supporting events in Northiam and Danson along with those at Cornwallis Academy and Leeds Castle, covering a variety of roles from closing roads to ensure the safety of Bonfire Society processions, managing parking and offering assistance to those vehicles which found the muddy car park surfaces too difficult to negotiate or had a flat battery for example.
