• Penglais Sixth Form Lesson Cuts
    Most other schools have 9 sessions per lesson over the course of two weeks, and some have 8, but Penglais only have 7 due to funding. It is important to have at 9 or at least 8 over two weeks as when it comes to exams we will be less prepared than other schools in Wales, and if they score higher marks in the exams, overall we will fall below and not get the results we deserve. The study sessions that have been used as a replacement do not offer the support of the classes to help towards exams

Spare change of £5 per child to create a big change, taking hundreds of families out of the grip of poverty.

  • CYCLE ROUTE ON HAMPSTEAD HEATH FROM KENWOOD TO THE LADIES' POND
    Daily pond swimmers like me, who are being fined and taken to court for riding to the Ponds on No Cycling lanes, are being victimised. I have already been fined £500.00 after 2 court hearings. I'm nearly 70 and can ride far more easily than I can walk. My bike is like a disability scooter, only healthier! There seems to be a prejudice against cyclists on the Heath in favour of dogs. Many dog walkers walk as many as 10 dogs at a time and yet they seem to have the lobby which deprives cyclists of the right to ride on the Heath. Routes running North to South are particularly scarce and do not serve cyclists in the Highgate, Golders Green and East Finchley areas nor those coming up from Kentish Town, Gospel Oak and Parliament Hill. Surely we are kinder to the environment than cars on Merton and Millfield Lanes!

  • Better cycle storage for Canonbury
    There are currently no secure cycle storage facilities in Canonbury, despite huge numbers of cyclists in the area. Bikehangars aren't expensive, only take up half a car parking space, and each provides secure, covered storage for six bicycles. For every one car space, 12 cyclists could be provided with storage. A recent consultation on the placement of additonal bikehangars in Islington led to plans for 18 new bikehangars, but all are in the north of the borough, with a third of them placed across 4 adjoining streets in Upper Holloway. The nearest proposed bikehangar to the Essex Road area is a mile away. Islington prides itself on being a green borough and supporting cyclists benefits everyone - reducing traffic, noise and pollution and encouraging healthy lifestyles. The Council needs to represent the interests of residents in all areas of the borough, not just the north section. As more people cycle, the borough will become cleaner, greener and healthier. With better cycle storage, everyone benefits!

  • The Smiths Reunion
    Please sign this petition to encourage The Smiths to reunite for a one off gig in Manchester for the original fans and also to raise money for charity. This would be the biggest concert in Manchester history and it could possibly raise an extravagant amount of money for charity whilst giving their die hard fans the opportunity of a life time. Imagine the money that could be raised for charity and remember its the fans that made you who you are today. I think they deserve a one off concert as it has been approx. 30 years since the best band ever split. We are not asking for a come back but surely it would not kill you all to reunite for one /two nights for a good cause would it?

  • Improving Queensgate shopping centre
    This is important because there are not a large range of shops in Peterborough so you have to travel to get things you want or buy things of online. Also it is dated and it is not modern at all.
