Firefighters called out to several fires in the last week
Think of the consequences of your actions if you're having a barbecue or discarding cigarettes on dry land.
That's the message from the Isle of Man Fire and Rescue Service after firefighters were called to a number of gorse fires in the last week.

Officer Brian Quirk says carelessness can have a big impact:
Government 'will intervene in air market if necessary'
Tynwald to consider new air policy
Politicians 'should keep promises on public spending', says MHK
Budget committee to report back by end of February 2026
Mountain Road and Sloc remain shut as snow hits the hills
