Save The EdgeKMC please find a way of working with the Edge cafe and keeping it open. Quotes from customers include: 'Huddersfield does not have enough quirky places like this and this will attract walkers from outside the area. The food, people and place are fabulous and unique and should be treasured by the council as a true creative place. They welcome everyone; families, walkers, dogs, all is exactly as it should be on the Visit Huddersfield map!' 'It's somewhere special to take my mother-in-law. We can enjoy the food and the view and even see her house from up there too. :)' 'Fab place to call when out walking the dogs xxx nowhere else like it we need to keep this xxx' 'love this cafe, it is perfectly situated for access by walkers with dogs and children and I feel provides something a lot of places don't because it doesn't ENCOURAGE vehicle access.' 'Hope it can be saved or reinstated. It's such a fabulous, unique place. Great food and staff.' 'It's unique and a life safer for dog walkers... Aren't the council in support of us ditching our cars and getting us outside cycling/walking? This cafe has encouraged me to do this on several occasions.... It gets me,my children and the dog out in the fresh air with the promise of a treat along the way. The food is also fabulous. It has a real sense of community about it.' 'It is unique. :) The view is spectacular, and in the winter when it's too cold and windy to sit out, the indoor rooms are cosy. I appreciate being able to take my dog, which few cafés allow.' 'It is a lovely place to go, always made welcome, food is good supplied locally, employs people. It is quite unique and offers a much needed service where it is for dog walker, walker, football spectators and, just any one really. :-) :-)' 'Excellent community facility that provides a much needed cafe (with excellent home made produce from local providers) for Longwood residents. It's a stunning location and there's literally nothing like it around and about. Love the place.'541 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Joanne Smith

Keep Merthyr Tydfil Nursery EducationThese nurseries are the foundation of our communities, our history and development. Some of these nurseries have been in our communities for over fifty years, giving 3 generations in some families of education with well trained, dedicated staff. These important years a child develops :- Physical development Cognitive development Emotional and social development Language development Sensory and motor development Not only will the development of the above be affective, but also the parents will be too. This will result in more mother's giving up work, because of childcare issues,and more people staying on benefits longer. Also the most vulnerable children in our society, `Children with Special Educational Needs` (SEN). Most of these children don't get a diagnosis until the problems are picked up at school, especially our nursery provision, as social and emotional disabilities don't begin to surface until a child starts school. There will be other issues effected by this, such as teacher's, LSAs and other support staff, including dinner and kichen staff all are at risk of job loss, reduction of hours and redundancies. Please support our petition and campaign to save our nurseries.1,247 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Paula Rees

Save West Smithfield Public Toilet from ClosureApart from being an historic and architecturally important building it is currently well run and will be a great loss to the area. I cannot see how the closure would provide any meaningful saving to the City of London.123 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Phil Jackman

Security of pilgrims to Sri Vraja Bhumi.Barbaric Sexual Assault In Vrindavan On February 24, 2015 At 7 AM, in broad daylight, 82-year-old Chandrika Devi Dasi was raped and robbed at Kesi-ghat, Vrindavan. Chandrika is from Russia. She is a saintly vaisnavi and has come to Vrindavan to pass the final years of her life. In her advanced age has performed Vrindavan Parikrama everyday for the past five years. On February 24th, as she passed through Kesi-ghat, two Indian men, approximately 20 years of age, approached from behind and pushed her to the ground. One of the men stole her parikrama bag and ran away. The other man climbed upon her chest and held her mouth to keep her from screaming, pulled his genital from his cloth and while sitting upon her to keep her from moving, masturbated and passed semen on her chest. After his climax he jumped up to run away and a large knife fell from his cloth. He quickly grabbed the weapon and ran. By Krishna’s blessings Chandrika Devi Dasi broke no bones when she fell. She is shocked and traumatised by the event. Though there were pujaris at the Kesi-ghat temple but they did nothing to help. From her shock, and feeling of shame, she did not report the event to the police on the day that it happened. On the second day when I was informed I instructed her to file a First Information Report with the local police. She did so on February 25, 2015 I reported the incident to our Vrindavan Temple President he sent his legal assistant to deal with the local police. By Krishna's grace the criminals were captured within two days and legal proceedings have been opened against them. But, as events go in India, unless noise is made, they will simply pay a bribe and be released. What if someone tried to rape your 82 year old mother. What would you do ?918 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Rachel Stokes

SAVE HACKNEY'S OLD BOATERS' SCHOOLHOUSE!It is important to celebrate and commemorate the social history of the past and the community education of the future. The site has English Heritage and National Lottery Funded support to proceed forward with a preservation project and more support is forthcoming! The freeholder and Hackney Council promised the site as a Heritage and Arts Centre as early as 2009, but are now reneging on that promise in acquiescing to the freeholder's desires to profit from the site's transfer to residential use. If you have time, register your support in favour of saving the building for Heritage Community use to: [email protected]. And - if you are a Hackney resident - write to your local ward councillor! Stop the Greed! Save the Schoolhouse!1,025 of 2,000 Signatures

Protect Scotland's remaining wild land from developmentThe proportion of Scotland from which built development could not be seen has dropped by two fifths in 11 years, to 27% in 2013 - an immense change in Scotland's landscape. The remaining wild land has been officially mapped by Scottish Natural Heritage for inclusion in national planning policy. We the undersigned support the Mountaineering Council of Scotland in calling for no further industrial developments to be permitted in the areas of wild land that remain. Protecting the remaining wild land in this way will have many benefits: - Wild mountain landscapes form a vital part of Scotland's culture. - Wild and challenging landscapes inspire people to become more physically active, helping to combat national problems with inactivity; there is also strong evidence that they improve mental health - Tourism is one of Scotland's largest industries, and is by far the largest source of employment in the more remote communities that lie close to areas of wild land (the wild land itself, by definition, does not contain any communities). We need to protect jobs in these communities that depend on the continued existence of wild landscapes nearby. - Local councils will benefit from reducing the high costs they are currently incurring in having to deal with planning applications for inappropriate developments in wild land areas; the planning process, public inquiries and appeals often taking years. - The renewable energy industry will benefit by having been given clarity that wild land is not a suitable location for development. This will save money, time, controversy and reputational damage through planning battles in these areas. Renewable energy may be a vital part of Scotland's future, but wind farms - like all other large scale developments - can be sited elsewhere, in landscapes where visible development and intrusion is already prevalent. When wild land is developed, it is lost forever. More is being lost each year. We must protect what now remains of these precious landscapes.12,022 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by David Gibson
