For many people in the UK, Bonfire Night marks the beginning of the colder months and the countdown to the festive season. Traditionally, people gather outdoors to enjoy food and firework displays around a bonfire. However, for many disabled people and those with chronic illnesses, these celebrations aren\u2019t always accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It could be that you struggle to stand for long periods, or your mobility aids don\u2019t work as well on the muddy grass. You may have noise or light sensitivity that\u2019s triggered by vibrant fireworks. Perhaps you feel anxious around crowds, or you\u2019re continuing social distancing or shielding due to vulnerability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever your \u2018why\u2019 is, it can be really helpful to think about how you can have fun on Bonfire Night in a way that works best for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few ideas:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1)<\/strong> If you do want to go out, look for bigger and more official fireworks displays. These are more likely to provide accessibility information online and have adjustments in place for disabled people. You may have to travel a little further out to reach them (so don\u2019t forget to book your assistance!<\/a>), but they will likely lead to a much more enjoyable experience when you\u2019re there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2)<\/strong> Consider hosting a smaller occasion at home. If it\u2019s safe and respectful to do so, invite some friends or family over and purchase a few Silent or Low Noise Fireworks to set off in your garden. Alternatively, you may like to sit outside and simply watch other people\u2019s displays in the sky above you. Grab yourself a blanket and hot drink, and enjoy your own private viewing among good company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3)<\/strong> If you struggle to leave your house or room, Indoor Sparklers are also beautiful. Again, make sure you\u2019re being safe, but these sparklers are specially adapted to give off less smoke and be more suitable indoors\u2026 and many are very affordable too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4)<\/strong> Indulge in food! Traditional Bonfire Night cuisine includes baked potatoes wrapped in foil, hot dogs and burgers and Parkin cake for afters. Many supermarkets offer seasonal food and treats around Bonfire Night, so keep an eye out for these in your local store or online. Regardless of whether or not you\u2019re in proximity to an open flame, it\u2019s only right that you treat yourself to some marshmallows and chocolate in the evening – perhaps even make your own s\u2019Mores too\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5)<\/strong> If you\u2019re into crafting, create something seasonal. Paint fireworks in the sky, fashion a personal rocket out of paper, knit bespoke hand warmers in autumnal colours\u2026 the list goes on. There are so many creative craft ideas online that could be enjoyable, not just for kids but for teens and adults too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However you choose to spend Bonfire Night, please ensure you\u2019re being safe \u2013 not only with regard to the fireworks but in looking after yourself too. Also, don’t forget that if you are planning on travelling anywhere by train, download the Passenger Assistance app<\/a> to pre-book your journey assistance, and have one less thing to worry about. Plans that are inclusive for you enable you to have the most fun of all, so we\u2019d love to hear what you get up to! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
