Sparkler Dangers: Bonfire Night Injuries Rise
Update: 2025-12-31
Description
Nottinghams Childrens Burns Unit reports a surge in firework injuries, particularly from sparklers, during Bonfire Night 2025. Home firework displays pose greater risks, with many children suffering life-altering burns. Sparklers burn at up to 4000 degrees, making them extremely hazardous. As the festive season approaches, the burns unit urges caution, advising to stand back from fireworks and dunk used sparklers in cold water. Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service recommends safer alternatives, such as attending public events, and emphasizes the importance of proper disposal, trusted sources, neighbor notification, and emergency preparedness.
