Some people find unexpected fireworks genuinely distressing. Others may simply want time to prepare themselves, their children or their animals.

Symptoms caused by Listeria monocytogenes can be similar to flu and include high temperature, muscle ache or pain, chills, feeling or being sick and diarrhoea. However, in rare cases, the infection can be more severe, causing serious complications, such as meningitis. Some people are more vulnerable to listeria infections, including those over 65 years of age, pregnant women and their unborn babies, babies less than one month old and people with weakened immune systems.

• Big pay, little effort
• ‘Trial tasks’ with a fee
• Pressure to act fast

Stay safe:
• Use trusted platforms
• Research companies
• Never pay to apply

🎆 Fireworks come with strict age restrictions for a reason; safety and legal compliance matter.

As Diwali and Bonfire Night approaches, it is crucial for retailers to review and update age-verification policies to stay compliant and protect the public. This not only helps prevent accidents and illegal sales but also demonstrates a strong commitment to responsible retailing.

🎃 Buying your kids’ Halloween costumes on an online marketplace? Over 90% of those tested FAIL UK safety standards.
A Chartered Trading Standards Institute (CTSI) investigation found that 10 of 11 costumes bought from third-party sellers on OnBuy, Amazon, eBay, AliExpress, Shein and TikTok Shop were non-compliant, with missing safety warnings, labels and traceability information.

Before you buy:
✅ Choose reputable retailers or UK-based sellers
✅ Check for a UKCA or CE mark and a UK manufacturer or importer’s name and address
✅ Read all the safety information on the label and in the listing
✅ Use battery-operated candles or glow sticks, never naked flames

Received a message about a job offer? Stop and Think.
Scammers can impersonate recruiters and HR teams to steal personal and financial information.

Make sure you watch out for:
• Recruiters who say they’ve reviewed your CV even though you never sent it
• Pressure to act fast or pay to secure a role
• Vague coaching or CV services with no credentials

You should never have to pay an upfront fee to apply for or secure a job.
