• Milngavie needs a synthetic football pitch. Please help by signing this petition.
    We need your help!  Milngavie Football Club (MFC) delivers grassroots, community-based football to hundreds of players on a weekly basis. The club is run for the benefit of the local community and is managed entirely by volunteers. We would like to take on more players in all sections and particularly expand our growing girls’ sections, mini kickers and ASN football, but the lack of local facilities and lack of all-weather capable pitches is severely limiting our capacity to provide consistent and regular training sessions and match day experiences year-round.    What we need    Key to supporting more players in all age groups is the ability to offer reliable training and match day facilities all year round. To achieve this objective, we need investment in a synthetic pitch in Milngavie which can be used to increase player participation across all levels, all year round. At the moment, the grass pitches in our local area become mostly unplayable during wintertime due primarily to the West Coast weather and persistent pitch waterlogging. About Milngavie Football Club   MFC’s aim is to develop footballing and social skills through coaching and enjoyment of football and being part of a team. The club follows the Scottish Youth Football Association (SYFA) Player Pathway, beginning with our Mini Kickers section, progressing through to Fun Fours, and onto 7-a-side football for 8 – 10-year-olds, then 9-a-side, before finally moving onto full-sized 11-a-side football. The club currently has around 50 teams over all age groups, from the mini kickers right up to the Walk Football group.    Milngavie Football Club believes in equality, enjoyment, and participation in football for everyone and the club has recently won the The Herald and GenAnalytics Diversity in Sport Award for 2024. More details can be found here -https://www.milngaviefootballclub.com/awardwinners/. Milngavie Football Club is also a Scottish FA Platinum Accredited Club, a Scottish FA Disability Inclusive Club and MOR+ accredited club with East Dunbartonshire Council - https://www.edlc.co.uk/sport-leisure/club-development/minimum-operating-requirements-mor-morplus/.    Our primary activities include regular training and matches for all age groups to improve the lives of all those that participate.

  • Keep Builth’s Wells Leisure Centre and Swimming Pool OPEN, and All Leisure Centres In Powys Open!
    Leisure Centres in Powys are not just a place to swim or play sport, they are a hub for communities. Leisure Centres are vital for all communities and without them it will cost Powys Country Council, Powys Teaching Health Board and Welsh Government more money on health provisions in the medium to long term. Where is the prevention is better then sure with any other approach then option 1 ? And what about the future generations act? Mental Health in rural communities must be a priority and it is proven that exercise and being in a sociable environment improves wellbeing and mental health.

  • We need a bigger drum store in East Anglia!
    This is so important to supporting local drummers, supporting the local store so it doesn’t disappear forever!  We’ve lost so many drum stores around us throughout the years… The only one left is Play Music Today Norwich… We need this to be the reliable place where everyone can see someone face to face for advice, the things you need right at your finger tips and not rely on the web/online, which is becoming so easy to do now. But, by doing this, it adds to returns, not being able to try products out before they buy or even see them in the flesh! It brings the community together and we can start talking face to face once again!

  • Improving Road Safety on A426 Rugby, Warwickshire
    For too long pedestrians, cyclists and motorists have had to deal with traffic approaching and leaving Rugby at high speed along the A426. The number of pedestrians trying to cross the road has increased in recent years as more development of residential areas along side this busy road has taken place. More children are walking down the side of the road to get to school, and the number of cars and lorries using it has increased as more logistics depots have been built in Coton Park and Rochberie Heights. There are frequent minor accidents at roundabouts along the length of the road as road markings have worn away and drivers do not observe lane discipline.  Pleas from local councillors to Warwickshire County Council Highways for action to be taken have fallen on deaf ears. We are now calling on the County Council to take action to reduce traffic speed along the section of the road that is currently 60 mph to 40 mph and to review and repaint the lane markings at the roundabouts.

  • Cambabest Building Material Obstruction
    1. the area has become a serious health and safety risk for Pedestrians and Motorists due to the abundance of large crane -adapted HGV vehicles and suspected unregistered Forklift trucks operating  and parking up on the Road and Pavements( without due care or attention )  2. all businesses requiring  access to and from the area are being affected and subsequently their customers too 3. the area due to storage and dumping of building material has attracted fly tipping as well as homeless individuals; resulting in unsightly littering issues also 4. security issues with regards to vulnerable premises Darul Barakaat, Ahmadiyya Muslim Mosque are compromised due to high stacked material and lack of vision due to the obstructions  5. the peace and tranquillity and beauty of a place of worship ( Darul Barakaat , Ahmadiyya Muslim Mosque)  has been compromised with constant activity by Cambabest directly outside the establishment  as well as unsightly Building Material being placed there. It is inexcusable.  6. issues of rightful access for both Mosque members arriving or leaving in cars and on foot is compromised  7. building debris is strewn all across the pavements and public road causing damage to cars and hazards to pedestrians  8. Dangerously stacked and loose heavy building material on the Road & pavements is a Hazard for members of the public walking within this area 9. legitimate access for waste collection services  or even Emergency service vehicles is compromised due to the abundance of HGV vehicles and building material blocking the Roads 10. There is a desperate need for pedestrian safety barriers to be installed by Birmingham City Council to safeguard &  protect pedestrians and prevent any obstructions being placed on the pavements

  • Petition for a pump track in Shoebury park
    With the new appointment of city status for Southend we feel there is a lack of local spaces like dirt jumps and pump tracks. Hadleigh was used for the Olympics but it's not always accessible for everyone further afield. What we aim for is a hub in Shoebury park focused on riding. We currently have our dirt jumps that we built plus a small trials section and a small skatepark. This will gain business for the local area and that in turn can only generate positive feelings and hopefully bring more footfall to the local area.

  • Reinstate the hard shoulder on smart motorways
    If a car breaks down, stops or has to go very slowly for any reason they need to be able to go onto the hard shoulder and avoid being run into by other vehicles. Although smart motorways have created emergency laybys its complete luck to be close to them when your car stops. It's virtually impossible for a vehicle travelling in the current inner lane to be able to stop or move lanes to avoid hitting a vehicle which breaks down just ahead of them.

  • Do not introduce charges for parking overnight and Sundays in Stamford
    In the last financial year car park charges brought in a staggering £1.161m for SKDC. Despite Stamford only representing 14% of the district's population, the charges for parking in Stamford make up 72% of this figure, over £800,000. Meanwhile parking remains free in Bourne and Deeping. Visitors to Grantham can also park for free for 1 or 2 hours in Grantham's council run car parks. Stamford is therefore subsidising free parking across the rest of the district. Currently visitors to Stamford can park for free from 6 pm to 8 am and all day on Sundays and Bank Holidays. SKDC plan to introduce overnight, Sunday and Bank Holiday charges across Stamford car parks in April 2024. This is unfair and will impact district-run services such as Stamford Arts Centre, whose visitors use Wharf Road car park for free when attending evening classes, rehearsals and performances. This will have an impact on several of the churches in Stamford, many of whose parishioners drive into Stamford to attend services. This will also impact the restaurants and bars in Stamford. It will also add to the parking problems faced by residents of Stamford who rely on limited on-street parking. Please sign if you care about supporting the residents, businesses, churches and visitors to Stamford.
