Tipperary's Chief Fire Officer has issued a warning about the dangers of candles burning over Christmas
One of the main causes of fire during the festive season are candles left unprotected..while vigilence is also needed in relation to overloaded sockets and open fires.
When candles are burning, the most important thing is to make sure they are on a fire-resisant surface and are not left unattended.
