Make sale of noise-making fireworks illegal in the UK limiting to displays only.
To make the general sale of noise-making fireworks (rockets etc.) illegal in the UK, limiting fireworks to public organised displays only.
Every year, thousands of animals and people with conditions (e.g. autism) are terrified by the loud bangs fireworks make. This petition is to have loud fireworks made illegal and only allow general sale of none-noise making fireworks (sparklers, fountains etc) to reduce the unnecessary stress, fear and sometimes life threatening conditions people and animals are put under each year.
