CLOTHING AND FOOTWEAR

Dress sensibly. Make sure you wear suitable protective clothing and footwear when using powered equipment - even in warm summer weather. Wear strong footwear with gripping soles. Reinforced toecaps can be an added protection when digging. Use gloves when pruning, handling rocks, weeding and when using high-speed equipment like hedge trimmers, hover mowers and trimmers. When using powered equipment, avoid wearing any loose clothing such as scarves or ties. Seek medical advice for any serious flesh wound, and check if your tetanus immunisation is up-to-date.
