CHILDREN are being warned of the dangers of fireworks in the run-up to Bonfire Night.
Officers from West Yorkshire Trading Standards and West Yorkshire Fire Service have been visiting schools in Kirklees.
Clr Mohan Sokhal of the Trading Standards Committee said: "By raising awareness of the dangers of fireworks misuse we can remind our young people of the serious consequences involved and work towards improving our local communities, and the part that they each can play."

Here's the Parkin recipe that's perfect for you to use at your own bonfire or wherever you intend to be.
Ingredients
For the parkin (this is best served chilled, so you could make this ahead)
100g/3½oz of self-raising flour
1 dessertspoon of ground ginger
80g/3oz of rolled oats
175g/6oz of golden syrup
50g/2oz of black treacle
100g/3½ of butter
100g/3½oz of sugar
1 egg
For the butterscotch sauce:
25g/1oz of butter
25g/1oz of soft brown sugar
25g/1oz of golden syrup
1 vanilla pod
squeeze of lemon juice
30ml/1 fl oz of double cream
clotted cream to serve
Method
Preheat oven to 150ºC/300F/Gas2 and line a 1lb loaf tin. Sieve the flour, sugar, & ginger into a large bowl.
Then in a small pan, gently heat the butter and syrup until melted.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg into the milk and put to one side.
Now gradually pour the butter, treacle and syrup into the flour mixture and stir – it will be thick & gooey.
Add the egg and milk, stirring again until smooth. Pour your mixture into the tin & bake for 1 hour.
When baked, allow to cool & chill until needed. For the butterscotch sauce; place the butter, brown sugar, golden syrup and vanilla pod in a small saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer.
Remove from the heat and add a squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Finally stir in the double cream & remove the vanilla pod. Serve with clotted cream.
