Will you be enjoying the fireworks? There’s no substitute for good adult supervision when it comes to young children and firework safety. But it’s never too early to start teaching them how to stay safe around bonfires, fireworks and sparklers. 👉capt.org.uk/fireman-sam-safe…

In all the excitement this Halloween, children may want to tuck into their sweets whilst they’re on the move. But it’s best to avoid eating while walking or running, so you may want to save the treats to enjoy back at home. #ScareSafely this Halloween: capt.org.uk/halloween/

Drowning happens quickly and quietly. And, if your child goes under the water you won’t hear it. So, stay with them all the time they’re in the bath and keep them in arm's reach. Learn more ways to stay safe at bath time: capt.org.uk/safe-baby-bath-t… #ChildSafety #BabySafety
