It comes ahead of the Halloween season.
A campaign, raising awareness about the dangers of fireworks launched today.
It comes ahead of the Halloween season, with the celebrations just over a month away.
Fireworks going off in people's pockets, severe burns and loss of limbs are some of the incidents firefighters and paramedics say they deal with every Halloween.
Being caught in possession of illegal fireworks or throwing them at people and houses can attract fines of up to 10 thousand euro and 5 years’ imprisonment.
There has been a decline in firework-related injuries in recent years - partially due to an increase in the number of official and controlled displays.
These people says they're going off earlier each year.
