North Yorkshire Police’s Football Liaison Officers will be holding a Pyrotechnics Amnesty at Bootham Crescent this Saturday (12 July 2014).

The initiative is being held with the support of York City Football Club to raise awareness of the dangers and the law around flares and smoke grenades which many people believe are harmless.

A red bin will be placed outside the ground where fans can drop off any flares or smoke grenades ahead of Saturday’s game against Sheffield Wednesday.
