Extreme wildfire warning for the whole of Scotland 🔥

There is an extreme risk of wildfire across the whole of Scotland from today until Saturday, 2 May.

We know many people across Scotland will be wanting to enjoy the good weather across the bank holiday weekend. We ask that everyone does so responsibly.

Wildfires have the potential to destroy property, landscapes and wildlife. All it takes is one spark to spread, causing a large amount of damage.

Remember, there’s no such thing as a 'harmless' fire.

Share this wildfire warning to help spread the word.

🔥 Extreme wildfire risk across Scotland 🔥

An extreme wildfire warning is in place across Scotland from Friday, 11 July, until Monday, 14 July.

We want you to enjoy Scotland’s great outdoors in the sunshine, but we have a few tips to help keep everyone safe:
✅Avoid BBQs and campfires
✅Never discard ci******es or litter
✅Stick to marked paths and avoid dry vegetation
✅Call 999 if you spot signs of fire

Fires can ignite quickly and spread fast during this period, so we urge you to use caution and avoid using any items involving a naked flame to help reduce the risk of wildfires.
