Rejected petition BRING BACK HUMBERESTONE PARK BONFIRE! LEICESTER

More details

For many years, Humberstone Park Bonfire night was a fantastic free of charge, family event. This was enjoyed by the entire local community and many people coming from far away

In 2013, the LCC decided that they would cut the budget completely

The local children are missing out on one of the great British traditions.

In comparison to other festivities that are funded - £88,000 funding for Diwali with £28,000 put aside for Diwali lights along the Belgrave Road. This is just one example of many different festivities of many types that are funded by the tax payer in Leicester

Humberstone Park bonfire only cost £16,000 per year to put on.
