Stop KCC cutting funding for Socially Necessary Bus Services (SNBS)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.1,652 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Jenny Reeves

Keep the 5:38 from Selhurst to Luton running - Due to change in May 2018If 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.377 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Jacqueline-Anne McMillan Yarwood

New HOSPITAL with ALL SERVICES under one roof in Newtown ASAP...24/7 Minor Injury Unit NOWThe 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.

Save Governors WalesGovernors 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are being charged with more and more responsibilities while the tools required by us to carry out our duties are being withdrawn or reduced to a minimum.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.396 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Nigel Burnap

Keep Middleton Cheney Library OpenWe 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.661 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Mark Allen

STOP SUBSIDIZED BARS AND RESTAURANTS IN WESTMINSTERI 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.180 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Paula Atherton

Keep Our SUBS* Public! [* Stroud's Subscription Rooms]The Subs should be used by, and become an empowering hub for, ALL socio-economic groups, including vulnerable groups, community groups, the elderly and the young. The Subs can and should become a genuine community resource/space, showcasing a creative and caring community coming together to consolidate and extend what is rightfully ours, and to make available what should be accessible for all. In conversations on our High Street, it is clear how passionately Stroudies feel about this issue. Many are uncomprehending, and some even horrified, that Stroud, of all places, should be contemplating transferring this much-loved community gem into the private sector. With the active support of Stroud Town Council, the Stroud Trust has lodged an alternative bid, which would keep the centre run by, and open to, the whole community. Let's see all interested bidders and parties - including most importantly the District Council, Town Council and Ecotricity - come together with good faith and open mind to find a solution for the Subs' future that can serve and satisfy everyone's needs and aspirations. If enough of us sign this petition, we can show Stroud District Council that the people of Stroud want the centre to be publicly owned by the community, as it has been historically, and to stay open full-time for the people of Stroud and its environs.1,548 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Richard House

Opening hours to suit the community at Artizan Street LibraryFrom Tuesday to Friday, the library closes at 4pm, and it doesn’t open at all at weekends. Many children and students in local schools finish too late to to use the services after school, and residents working 9-5 jobs do not have much opportunity to access the library at all. The current opening hours seem only to serve the needs of the City workers coming into the area during the day, rather than the people living in the local community. This issue has been raised in a recent customer survey, and a consultation into a new spread of opening hours is under way. We, the residents of the City of London, want to make sure that our voices are put front and centre on this issue, rather than the corporations and City workers, which is too often the case.115 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Jason Pritchard and Munsur Ali

Stop the closure of Douglas WardOn 30 October 2017, NHS Lanarkshire voted to close Douglas Ward at Udston Hospital. This decision was made without proper public or patient consultation. The ward provides crucial lifeline care to patients with complex health needs. Many of the patients have lived there for over ten years and now consider this their home, as do the relatives who visit. Its closure means that its patients will move further away from family and friends, and have less contact from loved ones and the additional support they desperately need.1,190 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Kezzabell Boyle
