The local council has officially moved to ban fireworks in our area following the concerns we raised together. It is a relief to see our shared goal become reality, though we must remain mindful of the enforcement of this change. Thank you for choosing to prioritize the safety and peace …
The stories shared by neighbors about the distress fireworks cause their pets and families are deeply moving. These experiences reveal a shared desire for a quieter and safer environment in our town.

Seeing this conversation grow across our community is a testament to how many of us prioritize the well-being of our animals over brief displays. This momentum confirms that our collective concern carries real weight and that we are ready to rethink these traditions.

People are too childish and selfish to behave responsibly anymore. This puts pressure on fire and medical services due to an increase in irresponsible behavior; and people have lost valuable livestock. Not only Nov. 5th, but throughout the year, fireworks are let off at random times which are not only annoying, but scare people's pets. Have public displays, but ban private fireworks.

Die skuldiges versorg nie die verlore en beseerde diere nie. Kinders word ook deur vuurwerke beseer. Verban die vuurwerke asb.

I have nothing against a good quality display......What is irritating is the bangs which cause distress to animals and others when they are randomly set off when the general public are allowed to buy them in small quantities. There is no need for them to make loud bangs either. Quiet Pretty firework displays are a joy to watch

Fireworks cause many problems for animals and you never know when they are about to go off
