Do not ban fireworks - make them available to purchase from age 21
Fireworks should not be banned from being sold to the general public (as a petition currently suggests). We think they should be available to buy for anyone over the age of 21.
Stop High Powered 1.3g Fireworks being sold to retailers in the UK
Growing trends have seen a big growth in the sales of higher powered 1.3g retail fireworks, most of these type of products are dangerous and very noisy, totally unsuitable for the places where general public use them. If this was stopped most of the noise & safety issues would be dealt with.
Ban the sale and use of indoor fireworks
We call on the UK Government to ban the sale and use of indoor fireworks. Although classified as F1, they emit flames and sparks that can pose a serious fire risk in enclosed spaces. We believe a ban would help prevent avoidable fires and reduce pressure on fire and rescue services.
Ban use of fireworks for bonfire night celebrations on days other than 5th Nov
Make it illegal for fireworks to be used for bonfire night celebrations on nights other than the 5th of November.
Ban both private and public use of fireworks & replace with cleaner alternatives
Ban the sale and use of fireworks at public and private events. Instead, allow organised eco-friendly displays like drone shows, as adopted in countries such as the Netherlands.
