Subject: Fireworks display on hold for whale's safety

Written By: Philip Eno on 10/22/18 at 11:05 am

A fireworks display is to be postponed so as not to disturb a beluga whale that has become known as 'Benny'. The whale was first spotted in the River Thames off Gravesend, in Kent, on 25 September, with a number of sightings since, including this week. The fireworks were due to be set off from a barge in the Thames at the Riverside Leisure Area on 2 November. Gravesham Borough Council said "the need to keep Benny safe while he visits us in Gravesend must take priority".
