Kent County Council Trading Standards are warning consumers to be on their guard after seizing over 300 unsafe "novelty" lighters from retail premises in the county.
The lighters (see picture below) were in various forms many of which would be appealing to children. None of them have the required child resistance feature to stop children accidentally starting fires.
This type of lighter is banned from sale to reduce the number of injuries and deaths caused by house fires started by children playing with lighters.
If you see any of these lighters for sale in Kent please contact Trading Standards on 0808 156 2256.
