Fires in the area

Fires in the area

Hello Resident

We have recently seen an increase of grass fires in the area specifically in the Melyn Mynach Park area of Gorseinon. We are asking residents to be extra vigilant when dealing with items which are capable of starting fires and to report any suspicious activity or deliberate fire setting to us as wild grass fires can cause serious damage to local areas, property and wildlife along with endangering the safety of fire crews who are called to extinguish the fires. There can also be criminal consequences for persons found to be setting fires deliberately. 

We are also asking parents to have a discussion with their children in relation to fires and fire safety. 

Please note, that South Wales Listens is not a crime reporting tool. In an emergency, if you or your property are at risk, or a crime is in progress call 999.

Do you need to speak to the police but don’t require an emergency response?

You can make an online report via our website https://www.south-wales.police.uk, send us a private message via Live Chat, or call 101. In an emergency always dial 999.
