What the petition asks

Only allow registered organised firework displays, ban sales to the public
Fireworks are a nuisance to the public. They scare animals, young children and people with a phobia, they injure thousands of people every year!
The time around bonfire night/Halloween is also a worrying time for pets and their owners.
Lastly KIDS are STILL being sold them setting them off purposely causing damage to property’s and emergency vehicles!!
