PEOPLE with real fires or woodburning stoves are being encouraged to have their chimneys swept regularly as Hereford & Worcester Fire and Rescue Service re-issues its chimney safety advice.
People are urged to make an appointment with a registered chimney sweep if their chimney has not been swept recently. Full details of chimney sweeps operating locally are listed on hwfire.org.uk under the Your Safety heading.
