  • Legally recognise ADUK Dogs as Carers for Direct Payments
    These are amazing carers who maintain and promote independence for people who have various and complex care and social needs. Our assistance dogs care for us 24/7 who should be legally recognised by the government and save the government millions a year in care charges. The government needs to offer people the right to be able to claim for these costs to be able to keep us independent and motivated and socialised within the community. The average homecare cost is £200 per week the average cost of an ADUK is about £50 per week. Some more progressive councils allow for these amazing carers to be honoured and covered by a direct payment, whilst other councils take the guideline discriptor of carer ( meaning human ) as literal- this should be addressed to show the change since it was written. It will also help with the crisis in the health and social care situation.

  • Introduce bus service from Dundee to Stratheden Hospital
    Hundreds of students (nursing, medical and allied health professions) are placed at this hospital a year from Dundee University, Dundee & Angus College and Abertay University (and the surrounding area) and using public transport can take up to two hours to get there and back even though it is only a 30/40 minute journey. Its not only students who would benefit from this, stratheden has staff, visitors and patients who would find this bus route useful. At present, anyone getting to Stratheden Hospital via public transport has to get a bus from the hospital into the town centre of Cupar (which only runs once an hour so you often have to resort to a taxi) and then wait to get either a train into Dundee or another bus. The hospital itself plays a big role in mental health care within NHS Scotland but is currently facing a staffing shortage and from personal experience I believe this has a lot to do with how unaccessible the hospital and as many of you may know, staffing & student shortages leads to poor care delivery. I urge anyone who works at the hospital, is a student and understands the struggles of travelling to placement, someone who understands how important good staffing levels within the NHS are or just anyone who wants to support the cause to please sign this petition. Thank you.

  • Improve bus times for workers!
    So many people rely on the bus service to get them to and from work. First bus york dont take into consideration the staff that start as early as 7:00am. The number 7 McArthurglen route is one of the busiest park and ride services there is so they would be silly not to put extra busses on. The number 9 and 3 service runs as early as 6:00am and 6:30am so why can't the number 7 route?

  • Put a domestic abuse/violence lead in every workplace in the UK
    Figures in 2011 showed that here in the UK £1.8bn is lost in economic output, since then grants have been cut, refuges have been closed and Domestic Violence has increased. People suffer in silence because they are so ashamed of their situations, those lucky enough to have a job are often too scared to disclose because they fear losing something that is possibly the only constant thing in their lives.

  • Keep Kingsway Golf Course open in Scunthorpe
    The Kingsway Golf Course has been successful for many years in getting new people interested in the sport of golf, many people who cannot afford the cost of joining one of the local golf clubs have been able to enjoy the game due to the availability of the course at Kingsway. Currently the course is being allowed to deteriorate, the is a huge shame as I have seen many young people coming to play the course during the school holidays only to find it unplayable due to the councils decision not to maintain it. I played my first round of golf on this course, encouraged by one of my friends to have a go without any of the pressure of teeing off in front of experienced golfers at a club and I know many local people who have taken up the sport using this course. Please help me keep this opportunity open to our young and not so young people in the area

  • Unlimited attempts to take Literacy and Numeracy Skills Test for PGCE Teacher Training Courses
    If you cannot pass the tests in your third attempt, like me, then this holds you back from becoming an outstanding teacher. 2 years is a lot of time and it holds students back from wanting to teach because if you cannot pass after 2 years then you have to wait for another 2 years. I would like unlimited chances to pass Literacy and numeracy skills test to be put back to action because the government is loosing so many highly skilled student teachers as they are unable to pass their qts tests. I am sure most PGCE students would agree with this.
