Libraries are often one of the last free to use public hubs in towns and villages where services have already been drastically cut. Reducing Northamptonshire's libraries and potentially leaving only 8 would be devastating for this semi rural county. These important buildings don't just house books they provide modern meeting places for many clubs and groups as well as community events, meeting rooms, internet access and a host of other services. To lose the libraries and with them some children's centres and elderly respite provision would be a real tragedy for our thriving communities leaving us without access to vital services.

Sexual health services that are free and open to anyone who needs them have been the keystone of world-leading sexual health care in England for over a hundred years. They provide essential functions such as testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and HIV, free contraception including emergency methods such as the ‘morning after pill’ and long-acting methods, as well as sexual health promotion, advice on STI/HIV prevention and outreach services across the community. These services are free to access, confidential and are there for everyone, including those who are the most vulnerable in society. However, sexual health services, which are no longer funded from the NHS, are facing unprecedented threats as a result of damaging and persistent Government cuts to local authority public health budgets, from which they are now funded. These cuts come at a time when more people are accessing sexual health services than ever before, record levels of STIs are being diagnosed, difficult to treat antibiotic-resistant strains of infection are being detected and the need for quality contraception and HIV testing is more important than ever. Therefore, it is essential that the Government ensures appropriate public health funding is made available for local authorities so we are able to address these challenges head-on and continue to provide the care that people rely on. Failure to do so represents the falsest of false economies and will jeopardise the sexual health of both individuals and society as a whole. Sexual health services are for everyone - you do not know when you, your friends, loved ones or family may need them - so join with us now to pledge your support and help ensure that services receive the backing they require.

The 42 and 42a bus is an important link for residents in Minster and Cliffsend. It links communities where some don't have access to private transport and connects to local schools, doctors' surgeries, shopping areas and village communities. It reduces car use, reduces airborne pollution, saves on parking charges and keeps communities together.

These bus services are a lifeline to our communities. If these essential services are scrapped, it will have a devastating affect on vulnerable people, the elderly and children amongst others. It will also be highly detrimental to community well-being, along with the local economies in a wide range of areas across Kent. Kent County Council must guarantee its residents the continuation of all of these vital transport services for the health and prosperity of the residents that currently use them, along with growing numbers that will use them in the future.

If the train is stopped, then people who travel pass Blackfiars would have to find another means of transportation due to there no longer being a service (unless you change). This would extend their already lengthy journey time. This could also lead to job losses and could also effect Elstree Studios. This will effect commuters.

Because it will isolate the Adults who use these Day Centres and they will have nothing to look forward to also they will miss their friends and activities and the independence they have and it will stop Parents/Carers having much needed respite and time to their self. My daughter Marie who is affected by closures has fought back after 2 strokes caused by a rare disease called Moyamoya will with my help fight these 2 closures to secure a long term future and choice to attend the day centre to help in my independence and choices how I live my life which will benefit me. Day centre users pay a fixed price every month whether they attend or not either due to sickness or holiday they still have to pay for day centre

The people/patients are feed up of being ignored and watching the health board and Welsh Gov spending money in other areas and leaving the biggest town in Powys without cover in Newtown when the doctors surgery is closed. There is an out of hours service called Shropdoc that are based in Welshpool hospital but don't come to Newtown until midnight. Welshpool also has a MIU, it's 16 miles from Newtown but at night no public transport, slow, single lane roads that make the journey slow.. People feel ignored..second class...worthless ... so many times PtHB made promises but rarely follow through !!!! START PUTTING NEWTOWN FIRST AND NO MORE PROMISES WE WANT ACTION

Governors Wales has been the voice for all school governors throughout all of Wales since 1995, and the services offered have been second to none. They have forged links with Governors Associations and networks and have provided excellent advice and documentation such as The Handbook for School Governors as well as a comprehensive website and confidential helpline. They were instrumental in introducing the Bronze Award as a benchmark for all governing bodies to aspire to, which has subsequently developed into the self evaluation template. Their staff have attended association meetings bringing valued information to those in attendance. This service is invaluable to all governors who give up their time freely and is at present I feel not being represented elsewhere. Governors are being charged with more and more responsibilities while the tools required by us to carry out our duties are being withdrawn or reduced to a minimum. Whilst we acknowledge the work of Consortia in supporting both our schools and teaching staff they are at different levels of development and Governors need support at ground level and Governors Wales the voice of governors is needed to ensure this. I would suggest a review of the Welsh Government draft budget is undertaken as a priority and that consideration of using some funding from regional consortia is further considered, to enable Governors Wales to continue to do their excellent work in supporting governors across Wales. Please support this petition as we cannot afford to lose this service.

We have saved our library before when it was under threat and let's do so again as it is central to village life. It is used by everyone from babies to older residents - the oldest of whom is 102. It is currently open 7 days per week and several evenings, when various organisations hold meetings, and events including talks, exhibitions and film shows. In addition to 'traditional' library and information services it offers: 1) Internet access and training 2) Meeting place for old, young and those with a disability to meet others 3) Mother and toddler groups and baby clinic 4) Rhyme Thyme 5) Reading groups and informal meetings during the day 6) Local craft/art exhibitions and sales 7) Various organisations holding meetings/events in the evening are Garden Club, History Society and MCLSG events, talks and films shows. "Libraries are about Freedom. Freedom to read, freedom of ideas, freedom of communication. They are about education (which is not a process that finishes the day we leave school or university), about entertainment, about making safe spaces, and about access to information." -- Neil Gaiman, from The Reading Agency second annual lecture on the future of reading and libraries.

I believe the British taxpayer is fed up of funding mp's to the tune of around £4m per year to drink alcohol. I think it's completely indecent that ordinary people struggle to make ends meet and the need for food-banks grows week on week but yet there is money to subsidize the drinking habits of mps. I'd rather give that money to help people in dire need. We don't subsidize any other working person to drink so why should we fund mp's to? They get a large wage, they claim back expenses to the tune of over £100m, can't they buy themselves a drink out of that? Taxpayers subsidize the sale of alcohol in around a dozen bars on the Parliamentary estate to the tune of £4m a year, it's time we put our foot down and told them to buy their own booze. These Tories love cuts well lets see if they like this one. Sign this petition if you agree.
