THE charities set to benefit from the 2024 Oswestry fireworks display have been announced.

The event, which will be again held at Cae Glas Park after its original home in Brogyntyn Park was no longer deemed acceptable because of safety reasons, is on Saturday, November 2.

Borderland Rotary Club marshals and organises the event through Oswestry Town Council funding with thousands raised each year for charity.

This year, the popular fireworks display will be supporting three local charities in Hope House, Oswestry Senior Citizens Club and the Veterans Orthopaedic Service.

Jonathan Jones, who heads up the Borderland team, said he hoped for another year of huge generosity in donations from the Oswestry public.

He said: “The event is free, but we hope that people visiting this community event will donate in support of local good causes and charities.

“The main entrance will be via Park Gates in Church Street and there will be signs to direct everyone to the show.

“There will be no bonfire, but the display of fireworks, lights, lasers and music will provide wonderful entertainment for all the family – there will also be food and drink available.

“We understand that many are concerned that pets are distressed by the noise of fireworks so we are using low-sound fireworks which we hope will reduce these problems.

“Let’s just hope that hope the weather is kind to us all.”
