Illegal Use of Fireworks in Central Chadderton

The Central Chadderton Neighbourhood Policing Team is aware of concerns regarding the illegal and irresponsible use of fireworks across the community and surrounding areas in the lead-up to Bonfire Night.
 

We would like to reassure residents that we are working closely with our multi-agency partners to address these issues, identify those responsible, and reduce the impact on local neighbourhoods. The misuse of fireworks can cause significant distress to residents, particularly young children, elderly people, pet owners, and vulnerable members of our community.
 

We ask parents and guardians to be mindful of where young people are spending their time and to speak to them about the consequences of using fireworks irresponsibly or unlawfully.
Fireworks are intended to be enjoyed safely as part of organised celebrations, not to cause alarm or disruption. 

With your continued support and vigilance, we can help ensure that everyone is able to enjoy the Bonfire Night period safely and respectfully.
 

If you witness anti-social behaviour involving fireworks, please report it via GMP Live Chat, by calling 101, or 999 in an emergency.
