RNLI warning after boy, 2, steps on BBQ buried on beach
Tamsin Melville
Political Reporter, BBC Radio Cornwall
There are calls for people who use disposable barbecues on Cornish beaches to get rid of them more responsibly - after a two-year-old boy needed hospital treatment when he stood on one buried in the sand.
RNLI lifeguards gave the toddler emergency first aid treatment for a badly injured foot after the incident on Perranporth beach.
He was taken to hospital by his parents to receive further treatment.
The RNLI says the little boy's injury could have been avoided if the barbecue had been put in the bin.
The charity is urging people to make sure barbecues are disposed of safely, and is encouraging people - if they seen anybody leaving one behind - to either ask them politely to bin their rubbish or to bin it themselves.

Johnny Mercer 'will help failed bond scheme investors'
Detailed plans for the first phase of a major regeneration project at Hayle Harbour look set to be approved next week.
The overall development for North Quay already has outline planning permission which was first granted in 2010.
Included in the plans going to the committee are proposals for 151 new homes, 2,014 square metres of retail space, 595 square metres of business space, 343 square metres of storage space for fishermen and 305 parking spaces, 208 of which will be basement parking.
The development will include 12 buildings which will range from three to six storeys high apart from the Fisherman’s Quay building which will be single storey.
Planning officers have recommended that the plans are approved when they go to Cornwall Council’s strategic planning committee on 2 May.
There had been concerns that the development could impact on the World Heritage Site but the planning officers say that the harm is considered to be “modest”.
The plans have been supported by Hayle Town Council and there have been no objections from the World Heritage Site team, Historic England and the Environment Agency.
