STOP WEELEY FIREWORKS! SAVE THE LIVESTOCK AND ANIMALS

I don't think bonfires/fireworks and the associated noise, bad behaviour and real fear surrounding bonfire night, should be inflicted on the general public. Every single year there are stories of people being hurt and pets, horses and wildlife, not just frightened but maliciously hurt. I think a ban on this horrible night that now spreads itself over two weeks, is well overdue.

So many animals get injured because of fire works ban them.

Fireworks cause nothing but stress to many animals as well as their owners.

Fireworks are dangerous toys, they also make life miserable for animals and people with certain conditions or who have been living in a war zone. Laser exhibitions or quiet fireworks are the compassionate alternative.

Unfortunately although it is a very nice gesture from the company that are planning this, as a pet owner whose dogs are petrified of fireworks, I can stay and support my pets.
These animals that are in stables and loose in fields around the designated area do not have the understanding of what is happening to them please do not let more innocent animals be killed when realistically the fireworks could be at a different venue for everyone to enjoy.

Animals should.not be terrorised by other people’s enjoyment, just relocate the display.

Margaret Hayes (Chorley, 2020-10-21)

We must all stand together to protect animals from this irresponsible tradition. In today’s COVID-19 climate how can people afford to burn money anyway!

It’s not fair on animals as fireworks these days are a series of loud bangs!😡

My Auntie had a pet donkey that after fireworks were let of charged in fear onto barbed wire fencing alarmed by his distress calls they managed with a vet to free him my Aunt and friends took it in turn to stay with him 24/7 but on day three he died

Animal health issues

John Oliver (Clacton, 2020-10-21)

Animal welfare should come before fireworks. Holding a fireworks display in a field surrounded by horses and other livestock is ill judged and selfish. Every year animals die around before night due to stress related illnesses and accidents from the fireworks l, as well as burns from firework debris falling on them and igniting their rugs. A more suitable location should be found near arable fields, not livestock fields.

Because their are to many horses and dogs in close proximity to this site.

Rosemary Greig (Clacton on sea, 2020-10-21)

#2453

I’m signing because being a pet owner I know first hand the terror they face during fireworks events and that is with them being safe indoors with a lot of background noise ie tv and radios on. The fear that animals who live nearby and are outdoors must face is horrendous and doesn’t need to happen. This event can be held elsewhere where it won’t effect the animals as much. It’s animal cruelty 🥵

Wendy Roper (Bristol, 2020-10-21)

#2454

Animals get very scared by fireworks and it’s not fair if the display can be done somewhere away from animals.

Vickie Motley (Reading, 2020-10-21)

#2458

This should have been moved a long time ago

Hannah Black (Lindford, 2020-10-21)

#2459

I’m signing because it is very unfair on those in close proximity to the event, especially the animals who will be living in fear while it happens

Emma Gunary (Weeley, 2020-10-21)

#2461

I would like the organisers of this event to take into consideration and have an understanding of how the planned fireworks display with effect the local livestock

Linny Gudge (Portsmouth, 2020-10-21)

I care about defenceless animals who cannot speak for themselves.

Maureen Finlay (Choppington, 2020-10-21)

No animals should be subjected to this abuse that scares, traumatises them

Mark Nix (Chester, 2020-10-21)

#2466

It is cruel, selfish, thoughtless and heartless and many vulnerable, helpless, abandoned animals are terrified of everything associated with fireworks, along with many vulnerable people. Please, please, find more suitable sites if fireworks have to be used. There are so many better ways to entertain.

Jenny Marsden (Bolton, 2020-10-21)

#2467

This whole fireworks issue is just completely irrisponsible, who really wants to have extremely war like noises and explosives going off in their area.... There is just no need for such a crual nasty show of war like images, why not show a beautiful light show to rowing music..... Well we know why because it would not please the brain dead in our society who enjoy seeing people and animals cower in fear... Please please ban this show now.

Debbie Stanley (Essex, 2020-10-21)

Loud fireworks scare pets, and even some older people !!

Edward Dando (Cambridge, 2020-10-21)

#2477

There are horses, mares in foal and foals very close by. This is dangerous to them!

Joanne Nicolaou (Clacton on sea, 2020-10-21)

Fireworks frighten animals. It's time there were only agreed, safe, organised firework displays on one day only.

Ian Bentley (Leeds, 2020-10-21)

#2481

This is completely reckless with no account for the impact on the animals close by.

I’m signing this petition has I’m sick and fed up of hearing fireworks go off every night it’s terrifying to all farm animal. and house pets. Where I live fireworks have been going off every night all year even worse and for longer in lockdown don’t see why my cat should have to be on sensitives to keep her calm. A bout time this GOVERNMENT listened to people and make then illegal.

Susan Crossley (Greater Manchester, 2020-10-21)

Animals can be terrified by fireworks so this should be cancelled and at this time people also need protecting from contracting the virus. Firework shows are not socially distanced.

Hazel Croft-Phillips (Whiteley, 2020-10-21)

#2505

I find fireworks very distressing
I fear for animals and people who suffer from post traumatic stress having been affected by war zones both past and present.
The fact that firework display organisers and sales of fireworks to the public do not even take this into consideration is apalling.

Craig Macleod (High Wycombe, 2020-10-21)

#2506

I hate the sound of fireworks and the fear, distress and injury in causes animals. There are so many farm animals, domestic and horse stables near this site.

Naomi Spindley (Essex, 2020-10-21)

#2508

Fireworks traumatise pets, wildlife and many elderly people or those suffering with special needs and dementia. Modern fireworks are increasingly like explosives and are sold indiscriminately to individuals and Organisations that set them off randomly and for periods of time far longer than bonfire night. Celebrating with an effigy on top of a bonfire is barbaric. Some people enjoy fireworks but that does not justify the terror that they cause.

Wendy Harris-Weaving (Liverpool, 2020-10-21)

#2509

Fireworks should be banned due to animals being scared plus they're dangerous and constantly in the hands of people who are irresponsible. They're not needed for anything.

Abbi Williams (Hereford, 2020-10-21)

#2510

It is totally irresponsible to hold for work displays so close to horses and domestic pets that will be terrified, and on two night as well?
It’s wrong, just plain wrong!

Rob Fowler (Stourbridge, 2020-10-21)

#2511

I don't want animals distressed

Jacqueline Diggle (Blackburn, 2020-10-21)

#2512

Because of the noise and animals also can be so dangerous to to adults and children

Yvonne Pennifold (Clacton-on-Sea, 2020-10-21)

#2516

It’s an out dated issue that upsets more than fills with joy

Danny Gray (Peterborough, 2020-10-21)

#2518

There are houses close by, wild animals, stables and a cat and dog "hotel". All of these animals would suffer from the extreme noise and flashes. Local residents may be suffering from PTDS and other mental illness and it would cause them extreme distress.

Andrea Buwalda (CLACTON-ON-SEA, 2020-10-21)

#2521

It's cruel to animals

Dorothy Dawson (Teignmouth, 2020-10-21)

#2524

Fireworks displays should be kept well away from residential areas and from animals

Barbara Randall (Croydon, 2020-10-21)

#2527

Fire works are best on the coast so not to disturb people and animals

Brian Peryer (Frinton on Sea, 2020-10-21)

#2531

Many people, pets and livestock find the noise of these events distressing. This site is unsuitable and it is appalling that it is to take place for two nights. Has anybody considered the air pollution that will result ?

JEAN Wilson (MALDON, 2020-10-21)

#2532

Fireworks cause distress to animals and
should be kept far away from them. Displays of fireworks are a very short-lived pleasure for humans but can cause lasting damage to animals. They are a complete waste of money as well.

Gail Winstanley (Edinburgh, 2020-10-21)

#2533

Last November a similar fireworks display was held near some farms and a horse died in its stables with fright

John Duffy (Broxburn, 2020-10-21)

#2536

Fireworks should be banned altogether as they are getting bigger and noisier each year. They are dangerous because they are small explosives and anyone can set them off. Please do not allow this event to happen.

Elaine Wright (Verwood, 2020-10-21)

#2537

Its awful to see my pets so frightened and huddled in a corner. They love to go out in my garden, but they are now too afraid.

Dawn Gates (Sheffield, 2020-10-21)

#2538

Because I think they should all be banned

Wendy Skelton (Clacton-on-Sea, 2020-10-21)

#2539

Please don’t allow these animals to be stressed and disturbed. They should be looked after not subjected to two nights of explosions right outside their doors.

Elaine Walton (Blackburn, 2020-10-21)

#2542

I am signing this petition as I believe it to be detrimental to livestock, horses, domestic pets and people. It is wholly inappropriate to hold it in this location.

Rachel Cambray (Bredenbury, 2020-10-21)

#2543

It’s not fair on animals. Fireworks are a menace. If it were left to me they would be banned altogether...full stop!

Mandy Sandhu (Coventry, 2020-10-21)

#2545

I'm signing because fireworks are terribly disruptive to animals and a lot of people too. They definitely should not be held near animals or farms.

Beth Favors (Westland, 2020-10-21)

#2554

Fireworks have surely had their day given the fear and stress they cause. Our emergency services and animal welfare services are all under pressure and over worked and under funded as it is without the added call outs for firework related incidents.

caroline Banham (ROTHERHAM, 2020-10-21)

#2555

the display should be moved to an alternative location to avoid upset and scaring vulnerable people and animals

Stephanie Hutchinson (Andover, 2020-10-21)

#2562

The Organisers need to consider the impact on other people & animals, or is that asking too much?

RICHARD J JONES (Nantwich, 2020-10-21)

#2563

I really do not understand why people have to be so complacent about animals. It is so amazing that humans beings can only have fun at the expense of others or expense of the natural world. if that is your idea of a good time I am really sorry.

Lesley Mole (Driffield, 2020-10-21)

#2566

I know how fireworks affect animals particularly dogs from first hand

Jacqueline Evans (Newcastle, 2020-10-21)

I don't approve of fireworks and UNACCEPTABLE to frighten animals.

HAZEL HAMILTON (EDINBURGH, 2020-10-21)

Nlo animal should be scared by fireworks

Ken Jones (Oswestry, 2020-10-21)

#2574

I've seen so many injuries to animlals caused by fireworks. People are too dangerous to be allowed them unless officially organised and plenty of notice given to surrounding areas within a 2 mile or more radius.

Lisa Reynolds (Sandown isle of wight, 2020-10-21)

#2577

This is inhumane to animals and people that are nervous of them. No need for them.

Heather Daniels (Eastbourne, 2020-10-21)

#2578

Unfair to all vunrable people and pets

John Woodrup (Bacup, 2020-10-21)

#2579

With so many bad things going on at the moment this is totally unnecessary and we can all do without extra trouble that disrupt the lives of the vulnerable and animals. Also, we are a lot more crowded now.

Michelle Ravot (london, 2020-10-21)

Fireworks are a nightmare for animals.
How many accidents have been caused by terrified animals running onto roads?

Andy Sieewski (Wycombe, 2020-10-21)

#2589

I hate to see Animals so cruelly treated by the letting off of Super Charged Fireworks close to Farms and Houses.

John Tattum (Wigan, 2020-10-21)

#2592

Animal Welfare and Firework displays are not compatible at all. The distress to these innocent creatures by the close proximity of very loud explosions doesn’t bear thinking about. I’ve witnessed it with domestic pets who are so frightened and it’s unforgivable to be having to endure this. Young children and the elderly or vulnerable are absolute distraught. Also the air is polluted with acrid fumes so think again and make a kinder decision.

Margaret Shea (London, 2020-10-21)

I love animals and fireworks scare them

Paula Waite (Northamptonshire, 2020-10-21)

Stop thinking of people and think instead of the terror to pets and wildlife
