A lease agreement for our 4 acre woodland (named Ladybird woods by our toddler children) is vital for Ignite Unlocking Potential as a social enterprise to support schools, community & families with educational services including Wales's only Nature Kindergarten, Ladybirds Parent & Toddler group, Adventure camps and activity days for children with physical disabilities & additional learning needs. During the 4 years as a business tenant paying against a draft agreement of 21 years, we have transformed 4 acres of unused land into a centre for excellence in Nature based Pedagogy. To date, this learning & play space has enabled us to make a real difference to the lives of over 8000 children and provides leading edge education and training services to education & health professionals across Wales and the UK. Please read some of our reviews from parents & teachers that we have recently supported. Your signature will provide our children with the hope that we can continue to enrich their lives and provide a place that nurtures and unlocks their potential.

Do you want to save Tarporley's precious, affordable retirement flats, Oathills Lea? Where will our elderly population go, if this complex is closed or sold off by Weaver Vale Housing Trust? Oathills Lea is currently under review and its residents are worried sick, as you can imagine. Built in 1970, Oathills Lea has 23 retirement flats for residents aged 50 and over. It is the perfect location, especially for the less mobile residents and those who no longer drive. The bus stop is just 100 yards; the Co-op 250 yards; post office 250 yards; village centre 100 yards; doctors 0.5 mile(s). All of this helping our older villagers maintain their independence. Oathills Lea is the only accommodation of it's sort in the village. Not only is it made up of individual flats, but there is a communal area where the residents congregate in the afternoons to socialise with each other. Many of it's former and current residents have always lived in Tarporley and others have sold their homes and moved here to be closer to their families. None of us want to be evicted from our homes and it is putting the more vulnerable villagers under immense pressure and stress. What will Oathills Lea be replaced with ? Weaver Vale Housing Trust, recently you were promoting the flats as a "Home for Life". Why have you gone back on your word ? Why aren't you filling the empty flats, when given the ageing and increasing population of Tarporley and the surrounding villages there is probably a demand for them ? If anything more retirement flats are likely to be needed over the years. PLEASE sign our petition and share it with your friends and family

There is lack of children's early learning services in Kearsley. This Childrens Centre has been revamped and is in a perfect location for many people from farnworth , kearsley , Clifton & so on. As a disabled parent this Centre is a perfect location, not only that having that comfort from going to the centre for a while & then changing to another location and closing this one down makes it much more awkward.KEARSLEY also needs a nursery school. At present it's at Lord Street and as stated previously parents cannot be at two locations at the same time. Lord Street and St Stephens/Spindle Point. The other Kearsley nursery is Kearsley West, but they don't accept early ages. So my question? Why does Kearsley not have a council nursery for pre school children? Also if the council are to revamp the centre in Farnworth why? Why can't people travel to Kearsley to a purposed built centre which had already been revamped? Why waste even more money on a building when you already have a perfectly revamped and neutral positioned Childrens Centre to then close it? Birch Road Centre was to be built and opened for a short time and then closed. Let’s Keep Kearsley Childrens Centre Open, Sign This Petition & Make A Difference.

Special Guardianship holders are often forced to give up their jobs or reduce hours to care for their children due to the children's behavioural difficulties caused by the trauma of their early lives. Currently special guardianship allowance is set by guidelines instead of legislation. This means many families live in poverty as local authorities often pay nothing. Government legislation would ensure special guardianship families are financially supported equally instead of the unfair system we have now, in which many families are given little or nothing. Of those families that are lucky enough to receive something, this is often stopped after a period of two years leaving them in financial difficulties. Special guardianship allowance should be paid until the child reaches adulthood. The cost of keeping a child in care may be as much as £70,000 annually, so surely it is better to support special guardians with a realistic financial package to ensure special guardianship does not break down due to financial stress, thus saving millions in the long run.

The safety of 15,000 participants is at risk as well as potential lost income associated from the businesses who have the foresight to make the most of the event.

Pine Walk art exhibition in Bournemouth Lower Gardens was set up in 1954 to help amateur artists display and sell their work. It is now proposed by the council to redevelop the display area by reducing the stands from 40 to 11. No serious consultation had taken place with the artists and we consider the new proposed scheme to be unfit for purpose. We have concerns that the new scheme will cost too much money which would in turn demand a higher fee from the artists to rent the 'new space'. We feel the money would be better spent in other more cost effective ways, one of which could be advertising. Bournemouth is an Arts University town yet local art is not supported. Locals and tourists love to visit this space as it provides a free attraction and provides a valuable platform for those starting out in the art world.

The Vale Square Residents Association have been looking after this community garden for over 32 years. Vale Square is an asset of community value. The council have refused to answer emails regarding this issue and have refused an offer to buy the square by residents stating they must bid for the property in open auction. Friends of Vale Square have invested time and money £4,000 each year to maintain the grounds including the trees which have a preservation order. Vale Square is used by local groups and is available for use by the community. It is an asset to be treasured and kept for future generations and should not just be disposed off.

This statue was funded by suffragettes and has stood in place since 1930. It would be disrespectful to move the statue from the public eye on the centenary of women's suffrage. We've made so much progress in the realm of women's rights but moving a feminist hero like Pankhurst away from the heart of UK politics would be a step backwards

Dr Beeching started the closure of the rail link and Fleetwood, a seaside town on a peninsula, has been in decline since. The infrastructure to and from this beautiful town is diabolical. It is quicker to fly to Geneva from Lancaster than get to Westminster from Fleetwood. It is 5 miles to the nearest station which is gridlocked at peak times. There is no direct bus to the station and 35.2% of Fleetwood residents do not own a car which is above the 32% National average. The whole of the district of Wyre, approximately 110,000, have had one train station since 1970 when the last passenger train left Fleetwood. With the creation of more houses in Wyre another train station is needed and with the shortening of the platform at Poulton-le-fylde meaning no direct trains to London/Glasgow can stop in Wyre the reinstatement direct to Preston is needed.

The Rossmere Park Island has the only breeding colony of Egrets in the whole county. If these birds move on because of the disturbance on the Island they will not come back. Not only do these trees add to the character of the park, they form a vital part of the local ecology for the Park’s large Bat colony.

It is important to keep the mining heritage alive around Leicestershire. The miners and their families are passionate about having their heritage continued.The council should make sure there is an exhibition of all the mining works and tours of the mining shaft. The history that surrounds Snibston Colliery is truly remarkable as George Stephenson and his son Robert Stephenson were very much part of the setting up and sinking of a shaft at Snibston in Coalville, therefore it is important that we keep this legacy going. In 2015 it was very sad when the Snibston Discovery Park was demolished, a lot of people fought to keep this alive. It was an amazing exhibition with hands on products for children to see and had an auditorium for films etc. The place now looks very derelict with only the Century Theatre.
