Lithium-ion batteries can’t be disposed of in your regular household recycling. Doing so can cause fires. 🔋🔥
Many local shops have a battery bank where you can dispose of them and recycling centres can also take them. ♻
If you’re unsure you can check with your local council.

We were called at 8:14pm to reports of an industrial building fire in Theaklen Drive, St-Leonards-on-Sea.

Please avoid the area and local residents please keep windows and doors closed.

Crews forced their way into an empty house last night after the resident left cooking on the hob and went out. Thankfully a neighbour heard the smoke alarm going off and called 999.
Smoke alarms are vital - they give everyone nearby warning of the first signs of fire.
