Limit fireworks & bonfires to Nov 5th & closest Saturday, new timeframe & fines
We want the government to limit fireworks and bonfires to 2 nights a year only: bonfire night itself and the closest Saturday. We also think there should be a timeframe of 6pm to 9pm. Issue fines for anyone who doesn’t comply.
Ban public use of fireworks on New Year’s Eve & promote quieter alternatives
We ask the Government to ban the use of fireworks by members of the public on New Year’s Eve, and to promote safer, quieter alternatives for celebrations, such as professionally organised drone light displays accompanied by music.
Make it illegal to have a bonfire until after 7pm
I want the government to restrict the time it is legal to have a bonfire to after 7pm. Some people have bonfires during the afternoon and in this heat, I think it's ridiculous, especially for people with breathing problems.
Reduce the sound of fireworks to under 80 decibels for humans and animals
I think fireworks are being used more frequently throughout the year and are becoming a nuisance. I want the government to mandate that fireworks should be reduced to below 80 decibels so they are safer for humans and animals.
Restrict building public bonfires to within 48 hours of the event
Many bonfires are assembled for a long time before the event and in some cases unknown waste is dumped on to the bonfire. This could damage the health of bystanders and wildlife. Animals which have started to nest in the bonfire before the event can also be burnt alive, this cannot happen anymore.
