4th July Firework Celebrations

4th July Firework Celebrations

With the 4th July just around the corner, it is of course of some concern to everyone in the States that there has been more and more legislation introduced which is impacting on the numbers of organised displays taking place to take the place of the formerly private celebrations which many used to have.

In the UK we don't appear to suffer as much from the 'Big Brother' syndrome as the USA as we continue to hold the right to be able to fire our own celebration fireworks and most UK towns and cities have access to all year round suppliers, like Jimmy's to depend upon. The rationale behind this according to Health and Safety is that businesses in our position have the right tools to be able to sell effectively and safely up and down the country without the necessity to have someone stood over us for every sale. The reason - simple - we, along with numerous other UK-based firework companies have the passion for fireworks but along with this we hold onto responsibility for the safety of our products both entering the UK from overseas and on distribution.

For most of you, when celebrations come along, you simply go along to your local/preferred supplier armed with details of the budget, size of the venue and the date and time of the event and we liaise with the customer to ensure that the goods are firstly suitable, that a responsible adult is in overall charge of the event and the place is suitable for the type of pyro in use. This is because the Health and Safety Executive in the UK appears to be able to create the right circumstances to ensure their confidence in the products on sale in the UK as opposed to the USA where no two regions have the same overall views on what it is that constitutes a good product from a great supplier and therefore have the right to use them removed. A little odd when you consider that the whole of the US has the right to bear arms but cannot be trusted to safely set off a beautiful piece of pyro or indeed to safely dispose of it afterwards.

If you are an ex-pat of the USA or indeed have friends or family coming over for the 4th, why not make this a trip to remember and hold your very own, safe and controlled fireworks display and celebrate the magnificence of 1.3g fireworks first hand. Our products are rigorously tested, safely transported and come with full safety instructions, safety lighters and set up plans to ensure that you continue to have what was originally fought for, the right to choose to celebrate the freedom of independence,

Happy 4th July :)
