• Bring back swimming in Bolton!!!
    This is important to the community because for a variety of years prior to now people have had to travel to swim and enjoy themselves, in which is difficult for people in certain circumstances lately. It is important for people who have children as they may not be able to travel so far or may not be able to afford to travel so far and pay for a swim also. This is important for those who don't drive. This is simply because it is easy to attend to and it is easy to pay public transport too if we had one much close to home. This is also important to those with disabilities. Simply because their carers may not be able to travel so far with the wheelchairs and walkers etc and may not be able to travel certain distances with their family members. This is important because people in certain situations like these could use these fun pools for education of some sort and would benefit from this increasingly! Persons like these are missing out on bundles of fun! Yes we have swimming pools in and around Bolton but each and every single one is basic. We want a swimming pool with slides and inflatables to be able have fun with instead of swimming lengths back and forth for hours! We want somewhere to swim with friends and family, we want somewhere to swim and have fun with these people and somewhere to make more memories! This would also create a variety of job opportunities for those who are looking to be employed and would also benefit from this too.

  • Stop The Cardiff Arms Fair 2018

One of their main exhibitors is BAE Systems, the world’s 3rd largest arms producer. We need to protest against such an event being held in Wales and show our opposition to the arms trade.

  • Protect our Bansky
    Banksy is a globally celebrated artist who gave a work of art to Hull. People came from all over the city and beyond to see it on Scott Street Bridge and it was celebrated in the media, locally and nationally. When it was defaced soon after it appeared there was an outpouring of dismay and disappointment. A local couple restored it and now it needs protecting at least with varnish or better still with a Perspex covering. We ask Hull City Council to recognise, value and protect this significant work of art.

  • Make Haverhill Road safer for pedestrians
    Many pedestrians use this road, for walking to school, walking dogs or walking to/from the village. The lack of footpaths coupled with speeding cars or ones that do not give necessary space when oncoming makes it a treacherous stretch to walk.

  • SAVE OUR LOOS
    Council bullies in solar loo grab! Local residents face a David and Goliath battle with Hackney Council to retain ownership of the community restored Brooksby’s Walk public convenience. The Council plan to terminate the community’s lease on 8th February. Residents re-opened the toilets serving Chatsworth Road, left closed by the Council for 30 years. After a long campaign and formation of the Clapton Improvement Society, they were granted a 5year lease in 2013, with the promise of a 100year peppercorn lease to follow. The Society raised funds from the Lottery and loans from members to renovate the toilets and convert the gents to a café/restaurant to pay for their maintenance. The current operator is David Bez’s Pride Kitchen, a vegetarian café. Altogether more than £40,000 has been invested. Clapton has Britain’s only luxury sustainable solar powered free public toilets as a result. But from the beginning, the Council has made life difficult for the volunteers. Officials raised a series of petty complaints about the works done by local contractors. Building inspectors demanded an expensive sprinkler system and then didn’t issue the certificate after completion of the works. A local councillor raised unverified complaints about the café and persuaded the licensing committee to refuse an extension of hours, which had been granted planning permission after an appeal to the independent planning inspectorate. Now the Council’s estates department is seeking to terminate the community’s ownership on wholly spurious grounds (including not having the building completion certificate) without any plans to keep the toilets open. “It’s an outrage!” says Society secretary Mary Doyle. “ As someone who is wheelchair fast, this is the only local toilet I can use”. “The Council has always resented our campaign to re-open the toilets and provide decent facilities on the street. Now they want to steal our community asset. Far from helping community initiatives as they boast in glossy reports, they undermine, bully and ignore them when they can.” PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION!

Vehicles regularly stop on the crossing causing difficultly for pedestrians Numerous accidents have caused lights and bollards to be knocked down - next time it could be one of our children. Greenbank School parents have commented how they need to set off earlier due to the additional time it takes to cross Smithdown road from all directions.

  • Chelmsford Developments & Local Plan (Incl. Beaulieu Park)
    We do not accept the level of power that is given to the developers of our city. We demand that all new housing developments should have both insulated buildings AND renewable energy. This requirement should not be dropped because of 'urban design'. We do not accept unsustainable development that contributes to climate change; our communities need clean energy, transport links, and schools, doctors surgeries and amenities.

  • Make fox hunts muzzle their packs.
    ‘Tradition’ could be upheld, and hunting dogs kept within the law, yet foxes, domestic pets and others could all be legally safeguarded. If you’re hunting a scent trail, legally, muzzling makes no difference. Why not?
