Red BBQ Warning

A Heatwave is expected

If you’re using an instant or portable barbecue, remember: Cool It Quick and follow our guidelines for the safest and most responsible use.

  • Place the barbecue at least 2 metres from dry grass and away from any over-hanging trees or shrubs that could catch fire
  • DO NOT use directly on ANY surface, it needs a suitable air gap underneath using bricks or a stand – make sure it’s placed onto a firm, non-flammable, heat resistant surface.
  • Never leave a barbecue unattended and keep a bucket of water close at hand
  • When you’ve finished cooking, douse your barbecue completely in water to Cool It Quick and follow the instruction on our packs for the most sustainable way to dispose of it
  • In the unfortunate event of a fire getting out of control, call 999 immediately

We want everyone to have a safe and happy summer with family and friends!
