Council wants noisy firework displays to use light shows );
);
ORGANISERS of firework displays in Henley will be encouraged by the town council to make less noise.
It has agreed to adopt a policy designed to reduce the use of traditional fireworks with loud bangs and consider drones and light displays instead.
There is no such thing as a silent firework but quiet alternatives are available.
The motion was presented to the council’s town and community committee by Councillor Donna Crook.
She said: “It is a bit of an emotive subject. As we know, some people love fireworks and some people hate them. I think we need to act.
