Rejected petition Only allow silent fireworks to be sold in the UK

Silent fireworks are now available there is no need for the loud noises that fireworks make

Loud fireworks should be banned for both home use and for displays in the UK

More details

Loud fireworks cause so much distress to livestock including horses. Dogs and cats suffer. The elderly and with those with PTSD following Armed Service do not deserve to be frightened in their own homes
Having animals is a joy and is known to be great for mental health, people do everything to keep their animals safe and well, we don’t want to see them stressed and frightened with the danger of harm to them too.
