Welcome to the Firework Campaign Official Website

The Firework Campaign is a UK based non-profit national campaign and government pressure group. We are asking the government to take seriously the problem that many people have with fireworks.

Please have a look around and see what we have been doing since 2013.

Since we started this campaign we have taken 6 government petitions over 100k and had 6 debates in Westminster Hall. These debates led to:

• The Fireworks and Pyrotechnic Articles (Scotland) Bill.
• The Petitions Committee Inquiry.
• The Office for Product Safety and Standards agreeing to collect data to better inform their statements/replies/decisions.

If you would like to help, please see ‘What YOU can do about Nuisance Fireworks’. 

You can also find us on Facebook and X, please follow us, ‘like’ and share. 

NOW FOR THE REASON WE ARE SO BUSY CAMPAIGNING 

Many of you will be aware of the distress and sometimes injury and death caused to animals, our dogs, cats, rabbits, horses in fields and stables as well as livestock and wildlife. But how many people realise the distress caused by these random fireworks to the young child who cannot sleep or is woken during the night? The elderly, having lived through the 2nd World War, who are thrown back into a time they would rather forget? The returning military personnel having served their country now fighting the battle with PTSD made worse not only by the fireworks themselves but the residual smell that hangs in the air? There are many medical conditions which are made worse by the sudden heart thumping bangs, whistles and screeches of fireworks.

During the winter months the use of fireworks has become an almost daily traumatic intrusion into our lives. We hope that by highlighting these facts and promoting our campaign that more people realise the devastation their back garden ‘fun’ can have on others around them.

We hope you will help us to do just that.  We want you to know that you are not alone, we are not a minority, we just need to be heard.

As a group we are constantly evolving. What started out as an animal group has become an inclusive group for all people who have negative feelings or reactions to fireworks. 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank every one of you who has signed and shared any petition or post from here or our social media.
