If you want a fire by your camp bring a fire dish!

One of our friends runs Mode - selling fire pits & braziers. They offer next day delivery and if you mention Give! Festival in the notes box at the end of the check-out process they'll refund you 10% of the price

(If you really know your camp-craft then the estate has said it's OK to bring a spade to remove a piece of turf to create a fire place but only on the condition that at the end of the weekend you replace the turf and make sure you leave no trace)

FIRE SAFETY

Get out - Stay out - Alert Security, Site office or Paramedics.

Stay calm - move quickly - get everyone out and clear from the area.

In the camp; ensure that tents, campers or caravans are kept at least 3 metres apart.

Extinguishers: at the Site Office, at the traders & caterers stalls and by the ambulance.

Be very aware of how dangerous a tent fire can be. Why not bring your own mini-fire extinguisher
