Upchurch Family Fireworks

Upchurch Family Fireworks was held every year at
Westmoor Farm, A2, Rainham.

For many years, 1000's of families from around the area safely enjoyed one of Kent's biggest bonfires and most spectacular firework displays at Upchurch Family Fireworks, organised by 1st Upchurch Scout Group.

For all of the families and past volunteers who look forward to the display every year that come from outside of our village and so do not receive a copy of the parish magazine, here's the Scout Group's sad announcement about the future of the event.

"To all those previously involved in the Scouts Upchurch Family Fireworks display, we regret to inform you that due to circumstances beyond our control, we are no longer able to continue with this event. It is with great sadness that we have bad to announce this, but the venue, we have been told, is soon to be no longer available and due to a lack of another suitable one nearby, we have taken the decision that we must call an end to this event.

We very gratefully give enormous thanks to all those in the past who have contributed in any way to make this the popular event it became, from very humble beginnings in the Paddock to the huge occasion it turned out to be in the last few years. Many, many people have been involved over the years since the Scout Group took on the task from the One-o-Clock Club. Volunteers such as you are what gives the village that community spirit. We hope that in some way you can continue to support your village life.

Thanks again to one and all.

1st Upchurch Scout Group”
