Please report any incidences of firework use that affects your pets. The RSPCA and the BHS are both collecting information to prove the problem to the government. These are the latest shocking stats from the BHS.

2021 – 391 incidents reported (102.6% increase from 2020)

2020 – 193 incidents reported

o            10 people injured

o            26 horses injured

o            4 horse fatalities

•            54 public firework displays

o            2 people injured

The reason the public and domestic numbers don’t add up to the total overall for Mar-Nov, is because the remaining numbers were selected as ‘not sure’ so its not known whether they were public or domestic 

It is vital for this campaign and for the RSPCA and the BHS campaigns that every incident is reported. The government will continue to deny the size of the problem if they can't see any data to support that.

Thank you so much for your continuing support. I am applying for an appointment to take this petition to No 10. (although I suspect he has enough on his plate at the moment) so watch this space.
