• Carers Bus Pass
    I Believe this is important because at the minute carers either have to get the disabled person or elderly to go with them with a companion disabled concession card or Cost a lot to the bank balance out of the limited funds each week. This means going shopping for the disabled or elderly with out spending the small amount of carers funds

  • The NHS in Crisis - Reading West
    We are concerned that the Conservative Government’s under-funding of the NHS has meant: In Reading: • The Royal Berkshire Hospital (RBH) is expected to make additional cuts of £45 million by 2020. • GP appointments are becoming harder to get with many patients having to wait weeks to see their doctor. • GP surgeries, like Circuit Lane Surgery, have been unable to provide good quality care and have been rated inadequate. • A&E departments are unable to cope, with many patients having to wait for more than 4 hours – failing a key target. The Royal Berkshire Hospital has missed this target. Nationally: • Patients are waiting for hours on trolleys in corridors. • Thousands of non-emergency operations have been cancelled. • NHS budgets are not keeping up with an ageing and increasing population and cuts to social care budgets are putting further pressure on the NHS. • The UK spends a lower proportion on health than other EU countries resulting in fewer doctors, nurses and beds per patient. • NHS staff are leaving due to poor pay and increasing workloads and stress. In 2017 33,000 nurses left the NHS.

  • Reinstate the number 25 bus to Wiveliscombe
    People in Wiveliscombe rely on the 7am bus to get them to work and college on time. The 7am bus is being cut meaning people will not be able to get into Taunton on time. The last bus coming back to Wiveliscombe is now going to be 5.45 meaning people will not be able to return from work and college. People of Wiveliscombe pay their council tax and demand the services reinstated. The council should be encouraging people to use public transport not taking it away.

  • Hands Off Our Ystradgynlais Youth Club
    This Youth Club serves a community that is already blighted by economic deprivation. In addition it houses parts of much needed Social Services functions that assist some of our most vulnerable citizens. Furthermore, we do not believe that this closure is in line with the spirit of The Future Generations Act.

  • Stop cuts to IVF services in BaNES
    The NHS Clinical Commissioning Group for BANES is consulting to make drastic cuts in IVF treatment locally. Only women between the ages of 23 and 35 will be eligible (and you need to have started trying for a baby from 33 yrs old -- 2 years before treatment is offered). By the time young people may feel more financially secure, it will be too late for them to access IVF treatment if they need to. But this is exactly the age when women's fertility starts to drop sharply and they will be most in need of IVF and related treatments. The well off will be able to afford to go privately for IVF treatment - but not others. This is a complete abandonment of the main principles of the NHS: that treatment should be available to all, irrespective of wealth or income. Why should people be discriminated against on financial grounds? The proposal to cuts in IVF treatment in BANES is cruel and will be devastating to thousands of younger people over the years to come. It is appalling that harsh government cuts have resulted in a situation where provision of NHS treatments is becoming so arbitrary and unequal Infertility is a medical condition that should be addressed like any other organ impairment and addressing organ impairment or failure should not depend on ability to pay. The consultation ends on 27th December. The CCG is inviting comments on the link below. Contact.http://www.bathandnortheastsomersetccg.nhs.uk/say-proposals-restrict-access-three-non-urgent-services

  • Save the no 1 and no3 rural bus route service
    The no1 and no3 bus service is due to be discontinued leaving rural villages with elderly residents, working people and students without transport to Chelmsford town centre, Southend town centre and Rayleigh station. This isolates service users and stops transport to doctors surgeries, colleges, universities, train stations and hospitals.

  • Save Northamptonshire Libraries
    Libraries are important to all age groups in the County. They a focal points for local communities and in the modern era provide a large range of essential services. These include the loan of books, careers advice, IT training, Newspaper Reading Rooms, Group Activities for Young parents and children, Access to Computers and photocopiers, archives for researchers, local information. Libraries are important hubs in local communities providing information on local services, activities and groups. Closing local libraries will isolate communities and individuals, especially the elderly and disabled.
