Firefighters issue safety advice for caravan stays after huge park fire

Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service has issued a warning for those staying in caravans, mobile homes and campsites this summer. The advice follows a major fire at Oaks Caravan Park in Fyfield Wick, near Abingdon, on July 12, caused by a barbecue. More than 20 caravans were damaged, and five households remain homeless. The service advises against bonfires or campfires on caravan parks and recommends checking site rules before using barbecues, keeping them away from caravans and dry grass.
