Have a safe and considerate fireworks night

We are determined to help your Bonfire Night celebration go with a bang – for all the right reasons.

In the lead up to the big day on 5 November, we have vowed to promote the safe and considerate use of fireworks by:

Supporting public firework displays within Shropshire to be appropriately advertised in advance of events, to allow residents time to take precautions to protect vulnerable people and animals
Promoting public awareness about the impact of fireworks on vulnerable people and animal welfare, including the precautions that can be taken to mitigate risks
Encouraging public firework event organisers to consider the use of silent displays with music to keep young children safe and to protect animals
Encouraging local suppliers of fireworks to stock ‘quiet’ fireworks for public displays and private use
