The Dover Soup Kitchen was founded by Steph Perrow in 1991, and their mission statement is that it is a resource for the homeless, vulnerable, elderly, lonely, and the needy. It provides free meals, hot drinks, clothes and bedding, and creates a sense of belonging and community. This soup kitchen helps many people every day without judgement or stigma it is a safe haven for many of the vulnerable in our town. It would be tragic if Dover lost this precious service especially in this age of austerity where more and more people are struggling, more people are losing their homes and many end up on the streets through no fault of their own. Please pledge your name to this petition so we can let DDC know that we will not stand for their actions and let's fight for those vulnerable people who cannot always make their voices heard. Thank you for reading.

As one of the highlights of the community calendar in South Elmsall this event is very dear to the hearts of all members of our community. As such it is of vital importance that the execution of this is well planned by an experienced and dedicated team such as those who have made this event into what it has been until this year. It is clearly apparent that South Elmsall Town Council has been unable to replicate the success of previous years and have completely failed to justify their decision to hijack this event. As made clear by the name the South Elmsall Town Centre Partnership is an organisation with co-operation and collaboration at its core. It is independent of local government and is funded from a wide variety of sources, NOT just the pocket of the taxpayer. The South Elmsall Town Centre Partnership has an excellent relationship with a wide variety of entertainment providers as well as working closely with local businesses. In two decades of existence the South Elmsall Town Centre Partnership have built the annual Christmas Light switch-on into an annual triumph which attracts people from miles around and it is in the interests of everyone locally that they return to doing what they demonstrably do best. Let our village shine and lead through co-operation and collaboration with those who are willing to serve voluntarily, not domination of those that have been unfairly branded "unelected busybodies" by at least one of our elected officials.

Jo Cox devoted her life to helping the vulnerable, and died attempting to protect the unarmed from a murderer. I believe that this exemplary behaviour warrants recognition at a high level in line with other similar acts of bravery regardless of personal cost.

London is overcrowded. A brand new capital city would be a showcase for a modern outward looking country. It would provide thousands of homes where there were jobs.

Libraries have been under threat across the country. Sheffield has already seen Walkley library sold to commercial interests. Now our council has opened up a review into commercial uses for the Central Library, with the possibility it will become a five-star hotel. The Central Library is a meeting space for groups and individuals, hosts talks by local and national authors and helps people use the internet. It is also a beautiful building, purpose built as a public space, which the general public can currently enjoy. The story of our beautiful art deco Central Library began in 1929, to a design by W. G. Davies and was conceived as part of a plan to create a civic (public) square. Today, the library houses Sheffield's largest general lending and reference collection. The Graves Art Gallery sits on the third floor with a gift shop and cafe and the Library Theatre, a space for local and student theatre companies, lives in the basement. It also houses a children's library. From the start, this building was imagined as a public space from top to bottom and should remain as such.

There's very limited opportunities for registered disabled racing enthusiasts and drivers in the Motorsport industry and racing championships.

At present, the host nation is Russia. This country has been bombing civilians in Aleppo. Those people, including women and children now have no hospital because the last remaining hospital was destroyed by Syrian and Russian airforces. Russia is not a fit and proper nation for international sporting events.

More than 2000 people have initialed the board to say they like the use of this derelict space. Now the Council request that we remove everything. There are no declared plans for redevelopment yet and until there are, we request that the Community Garden remains. Daily users of the Royal Hill Community Garden range from parents and young children, people with dogs, professionals at lunchtime, retired people, unemployed people, and tourists. The garden offers a unique opportunity for participants to create an evolving environment which is both educational and therapeutic. There are 30 different types of creature ranging from rare stag beetles, woodlice, slugs, snails, ladybirds, spiders, bees, frogs, butterflies, moths and dragonflies, to a wren, robins, sparrows, magpies and woodpigeons. The security of local shops and neighbours has improved and footfall brings increased business to the area. Thousands of people are enjoying the existing garden and appreciate its contribution to the community.

A greenway will increase cycling in Bournemouth and the surrounding areas, increase health and fitness, decrease congestion, lower pollution, decrease cyclist commuter time as well as shield them from cars, offer a scenic solution to help commuters escape urban Bournemouth, a greenway will make up for the areas lack of decent cycle infrastructure, greenways have also been shown to have a massive positive economic impact.

https://www.facebook.com/CarfreeGlasgow/videos/370608413272820/ Glasgow is the only city in the UK to have a six lane motorway cutting right through its heart. Yet, less than half of our households have access to cars. For the last 45 years we have all had to put up with a continual stream of traffic roaring through our city. Enough is enough. We want the chance to breathe fresh air and to hear ourselves think. We need the time and space to come together to start to imagine a more equal and sustainable future for our city. - Scotland has the worst health and lowest life expectancy in Europe. The physical inactivity encouraged by car use is more hazardous to health than smoking: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-politics-18876880 - Glasgow has toxic levels of air pollution that breached World Health Organisation standards in 2016. Air pollution causes strokes, heart attacks and asthma and is responsible for over 300 deaths in our city every year: http://www.foe-scotland.org.uk/air-pollution - A quarter of our city's carbon emissions come from traffic, contributing to dangerous climate change. 2016 was the hottest year on record and the third of record-breaking heat in a row: http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/nov/14/2016-will-be-the-hottest-year-on-record-un-says We need bold and inspiring action to begin to address the crises caused by car use. We must radically re-think our cities so that everyone can get around easily and live healthy and happy lives without need or aspiration to own a car. Like many other cities around the world, Glasgow must also start dreaming of a time in the future when the outdated motorway infrastructure of the 20th century can be re-imagined and re-used in different ways. Our annual ‘carfree day’ will be the start.

The site of the proposed development is a hugely valued community resource, including Highgate Newtown Community Centre (HNCC), the Fresh Youth Academy (FYA) youth club, two working community allotments which provide the HNCC cafe with produce, and it includes three family homes, two of which have long term occupants. A general upgrade/renovation plan had been established, and local residents put an alternative to the massive housing development forward. But then the council upped everything, apparently interested in wringing profit from the project. They now plan total demolition of the existing building, replacing it with four huge buildings – a project that spells major disruption for at least two years, with a variety of problems for local residents. Cheaper and less problematic alternatives are possible. We the undersigned appeal to Camden Council to withdraw the scheme and work with us on such an alternative. ________________________________________________ KEY POINTS: • Camden have not proved they need to totally demolish Highgate Newtown Community Centre (HNCC) and Fresh Youth Academy (FYA) youth club • Many local residents have been against this development for months but Camden haven't taken their views seriously. One of our local councillors publicly pledged to not pursue this development without finding "a design that the entire community is happy with". We want to work with all our local councillors to achieve this. • Camden Council have a poor track record with major development projects, which are typically delivered over-time, over-budget and sub-standard. • FYA has had £300-400k worth of very recent investment, which will be wasted. • Camden Council say they do not want to make money from this, but they plan to save around £350k per year in revenue and may also get a cash windfall of around £2m. Our concern is that this is a high-risk strategy that could end up costing more than it gains. • The demolition and development will generate huge disruptions for local neighbours, nursery and schools for over 2 years with traffic, noise, dirt and pollution. • HNCC will only be able to run some services in those 2 years or more in different buildings in Camden and Islington. • Building 4 and 5 storey buildings in a small courtyard will substantially affect the neighbouring streets in terms of light and privacy. The proposed new building would tower over the buildings around it. • Sunlight/daylight studies in the council’s application show that many local residents’ windows are adversely affected by the development – losses of light potentially with legal implications. • 31 private dwellings built in a small courtyard to pay for this will add pressure to local services and notably increase traffic congestion. • A much-valued local garden in the heart of this conservation area will be lost, while an electric substation will be ‘gained’. • Two families will lose their homes. • HNCC needs to be given a long lease so funds can be raised to improve the building without having to move off site. ________________________________________________ FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT: Friends of HNCC https://friendsofhncc.wordpress.com/ “Local residents for HNCC” – Facebook group http://tiny.cc/HNCC
