The Government has launched a consultation on fireworks and pyrotechnics, looking at how we can make their use safer and more considerate.
The proposals include reducing the maximum noise level of fireworks available to the public, restricting louder fireworks to professional users and banning certain high-risk pyrotechnic products.
I know fireworks are enjoyed by many people, but I also hear from residents about the impact of excessive noise, anti-social behaviour and the distress fireworks can cause to people and animals.
That’s why it’s important that people across High Peak have their say.
The consultation is open until Wednesday 7 October 2026.

It was a real privilege to meet Jack and his family and hear more about his story. 💚
Jack is just 25 and has recently been diagnosed with a diffuse midline glioma, H3K27-altered brain tumour. He is currently undergoing radiotherapy at The Christie, and his family are doing everything they can to keep every possible treatment option open to him.
Jack has always worked hard and wanted to contribute, working as a bin man for High Peak Borough Council and taking real pride in serving his community. His family spoke about how much time and energy he has given to the place he lives.
Jack and his family are also exploring a potential clinical trial in the Netherlands, which could offer another important opportunity for Jack.
It was lovely to spend time with Jack and his family, hear about his journey and see the incredible support surrounding him.

A big change is coming to local government in Derbyshire.
From April 2028, High Peak will become part of a new North Derbyshire Council, alongside Chesterfield, Bolsover, North East Derbyshire, Derbyshire Dales and part of Amber Valley. This new unitary council will replace the current High Peak Borough Council and Derbyshire County Council.
For people in High Peak, this means one council will be responsible for services that are currently split between two councils. ... See MoreSee Less

16-17 Saver railcards will be valid for a full year from the date of purchase, meaning they will no longer expire when the holder turns 18.
That means more 16–18-year-olds in High Peak can benefit from 50% off rail fares as they travel to school, college, training or work. 🎓
Previously, more than 70,000 young people a year missed out on the discount when their railcard expired on their 18th birthday.
Making travel more affordable means helping young people access education, training and opportunities - while putting passengers first as we move towards Great British Railways. ... See MoreSee Less
