Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service ask residents not to use sky lanterns on Thursday
Sky lanterns are NOT advised to show support for key workers!
Lanterns are a huge fire hazard, posing risk to a long list including wildlife, moorland, thatched properties and hazardous material sites.
Lanterns could not only put additional pressure on the Fire Service, but add further strain on the NHS....
So please, find another way to show your support by clapping on Thursdays or drawing a rainbow for your window. But please, avoid sky lanterns!
