operate from their base in Falkirk, and are well positioned to provide spectacular firework displays throughout Scotland. We have over 25 years experience in providing professional firework displays, and have a team of fully trained oparators capable of providing all sizes of displays, whether they are hand fired or fired electrically to music. We procure Fireworks made throughout the world and se

lect the best from each manufacturer thus ensuring that our clients are provided with the best and most up to date pyrotechnic devices available. These fireworks come from the following countries China, Thailand Japan, Spain, Malta, France and Taiwan to name but a few. On receipt of an enquiry regarding a display and during an informal discussion we can get a feel for the type of display required and also get some indication of the intended budget. Following on from this would normally be a site meeting to confirm to us that the proposed site is in fact suitable for fireworks and also to ascertain whether there would be any constraints on the size or type firework we could use. As a result of this meeting a risk assessment will be provided if required and a display programme will be produced for approval. For more information please visit;

It's very tongue-in-cheek but there's a serious meaning behind this.
Most people calling for a ban or further restrictions on fireworks own a dog or cat and they believe that gives them the right to demand law changes.

The reality is that dogs injure more people every year than fireworks - in 2017 they caused 11590 NHS bed days compared to just 240 caused by misuse of fireworks. In 20 years there have been ZERO deaths from consumer fireworks in the UK, yet dogs have killed at least 56 people, mainly children in the same timeframe between 1995-2016.

An average dog has the same environmental impact as a small car, producing not just CO2 but copious amounts of hazardous excrement and plastic waste. A 2019 study reported that the average Dutch dog’s carbon emissions just for food were up to 1.4 tonnes and cats were up to 0.25 tonnes. This is nearly double the annual electricity carbon emissions for the average UK household just for dog food and about a third of household electricity emissions for the average cat’s food. Grossly more than is created through firework use.

20.8 million dogs and cats consuming just one tin or unrecyclable plastic package of cat food per day results in 7.6 billion containers being manufactured each year, just in the UK. Add to this, another 3.6 billion plastic bags for picking up the estimated 1.2 million tons of dog-poop and then there is the issue of disposing of 200 thousand tons of cat waste.
The vast majority of firework waste is recyclable and made of cardboard.

And then there's the wildlife impact. If you read through the Anti-Firework group posts you'll see claims of how fireworks impact birds and other wildlife. Although the RSPB deny these claims and there is ZERO evidence that any other wildlife is harmed through firework use, this misinformation is rife. And yet, cats and dogs kill up to 200 million birds and mammals each year without pet owners seemingly caring.

The Mammal Society estimated in 1998 that 63 million small mammals, frogs and snakes and 27 million birds were killed every year by UK cats. House sparrows, blue t**s, thrushes and blackbirds are among the most common killed. Another UK study estimated that each cat kills 18.3 wild prey each year. This would equate to 200 million wild mammals and birds killed in 2019, including 54 million birds

Of real concern is the vulnerability of endangered bird species in habitats close to urban cats. When some species are down to the last few dozen, every one lost to cat-predation may be a final step to extinction. The study also showed cats only consumed 24 per cent of their prey; 28 per cent was brought home to their owners and the rest just left where it was killed.

We have no issue with pets but we do have issues with people in glass houses throwing stones. The statistics above are just the tip of the iceberg. We haven't even mentioned that more people are scared of dogs than they are of fireworks, the thousands in the UK with PTSD as a result of a dog attack. the hundreds of thousands of farm animals killed by dogs each year or the fact noise complaints to councils about dogs barking far exceeds complaints about firework noise.

Our point is if Julie Doorne and her campaigners really care about those with PTSD, or the environment, or the drain on the NHS, or anti-social noise, or the welfare of wildlife, they should be campaigning to decrease the amount of cats and dogs in the UK a long way before campaigning for fireworks to be further regulated.

The fact is they really don't care about the environment, wildlife, noise or the NHS - they only care about their own little 'fur baby' getting slightly upset for a couple of hours a year. This alone does not warrant changes that would adversely affect tens of millions of law abiding people who enjoy firework use each year.

VERY URGENT
If you are passionate about your fireworks and people’s (your) rights to buy and use them act now. This affects the whole of the UK as well as Scotland. Do not scroll past this, please keep reading.

Back Ground:
The Scottish Government are close to introduce a bill that will heavily restrict the sale and use of fireworks in Scotland, if successful it will open the gates for replication throughout the United Kingdom.

Where We Are At:
This Scottish Bill is still open for debate! There is still everything to play for and we can all have our say and inform opinion.

Two Ways To be Counted:

1) The easiest way to get your point across is a simple thumbs up or thumbs down on 10 key points - use this link for that: https://engage.parliament.scot/group/12657

2) You can offer a more detailed opinion and read he full bill using this link - https://yourviews.parliament.scot/justice/fireworks-bill/...

Do not think this is Scotland and does not concern me, it does! If you live in Scotland do not think this is a done deal, it is not! The majority of people throughout the United Kingdom enjoy fireworks and think present laws and regulations are sufficient. The problem is that this majority is being too quiet – time to voice your opinion loud and clear!

Pyrotechnic Magazine Issue #7 - The history of the international fireworks festival Knokke-Heist - Written by Jack Suijkerbuijk

The Knokke-Heist fireworks festival held on a Belgian beach is one of the oldest fireworks festivals anywhere in the world. Even though I only started watching the pyromusical productions held there back in 2003, it is actually much older than that. The tradition itself actually began in Knokke-Heist back in 1969 when the City Council started searching for some type of event to logically extend the summer and make their summer season end with an emphatic bang (so to speak). Their plan was simple enough: entice tourists to stay a little longer and enjoy themselves enough to want to return to their city beach again the following year.

You can’t buy ‘adult’ fireworks if you’re under 18, and it’s against the law for anyone to set off fireworks between 11pm and 7am, except on certain occasions.
Adult fireworks are category 2 and 3 fireworks - they don’t include things like party poppers.

Category 4 fireworks can only be used by professionals.

The law says you must not set off or throw fireworks (including sparklers) in the street or other public places.

You must not set off fireworks between 11pm and 7am. The exceptions are:

· Bonfire Night, when the cut off is midnight
· New Year’s Eve, Diwali and Chinese New Year, when the cut off is 1am
