Fireworks should be used sparingly and during major events, not throughout the year and at all times of the night.
It’s clear that young people gathering for wider antisocial behaviour are often the cause of fireworks being let off at all hours, and even if they are used to celebrate personal occasions the whole borough doesn’t need to be woken up by the loud bangs.
Even organised events cause distress to pets, wildlife and people with complex conditions including former veterans.
