Personal
injury solicitors Rochdale are asking people to visit council-held
fireworks displays and Bonfire Night events, rather than holding their own.
The risk of accidental injury is very high
over Guy Fawkes' Night, and Clearwater Solicitors - a team of no win no fee
solicitors Rochdale - are expecting to see a number of painful and serious
injuries caused by reckless and negligent use of fireworks, or careless use of
fire.
This year, organised Bonfire Night events
in Rochdale include:
-
Cronkeyshaw
Common, Syke, October 30th
-
Cherwell
Avenue, October 31st
-
Mayfield
Rugby Club, November 1st
-
Rochdale
Cricket Club, November 9th
There will also be a number of Bonfire
Night events in the towns and cities outside Rochdale. It is always far safer
to go to an organised display than for a person to hold their own - organised displays
reach strict safety standards, whereas home displays can be considerably more
dangerous. People who are injured at organised displays may also have a better
chance of success in personal injury claims - no win no fee solicitors Rochdale
point out that the organisers of these displays will have public liability
insurance policies, which will make it easier for people to claim compensation
if they are injured due to negligence.
Friends, families and people from all over
the UK are more than welcome at these organised events, and there will be no
admission fee or other charges. Many organised events are significantly more
fun than backyard bonfires - the firework displays are more impressive, the
community gets together and there can be shops and stalls selling Bonfire Night
foods and drinks.
If people insist on holding their own
events, personal injury solicitors Rochdale would like to give the following
advice:
-
Do not
build a bonfire near to a fence, shed, house or overhead lines
-
Ensure the
fire is stable and that it will not collapse
-
Do not let
fireworks off in any unsafe locations, such as near to people or buildings
Clearwater Solicitors hopes that everyone
in Rochdale has a safe, fun Bonfire Night.
