Motorists drive very fast along Garratt lane and it is very challenging and dangerous to cross this road with young children. It is not uncommon to wait for 5 minutes to cross and there have been several near misses. It is only a matter of time until something terrible happens.

Despite an increasing number of commuting and leisure cyclists that use this road since it was constructed, it is wholly inadequate for the purpose and it is only by luck that no cyclist has been seriously injured. Although there is a proposal for a cycle route from Maesteg out of the valley, it is not conducive for those wishing to commute via bike since it would involve narrow lanes and add at least an extra 15-20 minutes to the journey. Therefore, a route running the length of the A4063 over the ample grass verges is the only solution for journey times.

40 percent of premature deaths and the burden of disease is attributed to "behaviours" such as diet, physical activity, smoking and alcohol. In Newham, with a high population of South Asian backgrounds, the focus on public health is even more important as diabetes is up to 6 times more likely in this population. The obesity and diabetes epidemic particularly affect Newham and we urgently need lifestyle changes programmes at community level, as recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence. In 2013, the Secretary of State for Health Jeremy Hunt and the Chief Executive of Public Health England wrote to all the Chief Executives of Local Authorities to ask them to put people's health and wellbeing at the heart of everything they do. However, this has not taken place in Newham and we request it to change. Our local community with Food Academy and with funding from Diabetes UK, British Heart Foundation and Tesco has been able to deliver 400 fun holiday lunch clubs in the last 2 years, involving 700 mothers and more than 1400 children. We have supported a public health prevention agenda with hands-on cooking and fun physical activities targeting obesity and diabetes in adults and children. However, this type of public health work now requires promotion and funding from the local government and the local NHS for the benefit of our families.

If this proposal is passed we feel it will be the start of the demise leading to permanent closure of this very valued community Leisure Centre. We are all being urged to keep healthy and fit by both the Council and NHS England and swimming is one of the ways they advise, so closing a popular pool is not acceptable. Woodchurch Leisure Centre needs investment not closure. Please sign this petition and help us stop these unwanted changes.

The event will hold hostage thousands of residents in their own homes around the 100 mile route for up to 8 hours, cost local businesses real money, risk the livelihood of farmers and welfare of farm animals, all for the commercial gain of Velo South. West Sussex County Councillors were not able to democratically vote on this and neither were Chichester District Council nor the Parish Councils.

St Luke’s Swim Academy is a fully inclusive, non competitive swim academy that gives children aged 7-14yrs the chance to train with a squad, these children may not have the time, funds or ability to train with larger competitive clubs. At St Luke’s they can learn race techniques and build on their stamina while keeping fit and making friends. St Luke’s also provides training, support and employment for young people who have chosen swim coaching as a career.

Please help us get the 3,500 signatures needed to enable a debate at a full council meeting of Bristol City Council. So far, many people have signed a paper and e-petition calling for Bristol to introduce a city wide ban on single-use disposable plastic across all uses where the council has power. As a local resident I am setting up this supporting version of the petition on 38 Degrees to spread the word further and make it easier for more people to sign it. We wish to show the council how strong the desire is to bring about the positive change that we need. You can easily and quickly sign via 38 Degrees and your name will be counted, or you can do it on the council’s website using the link below, but the latter method involves creating an account with a password and logging in: https://democracy.bristol.gov.uk/mgEPetitionDisplay.aspx?ID=13&RPID=1964100&HPID=1964100&$LO$=1

THESE ROADS ARE BUSY WITH RESIDENTS, CHILDREN AND DOG WALKERS. MOST RESIDENTS HAVE YOUNG CHILDREN AND THE INCREASE IN THE VOLUME PLUS SPEED OF TRAFFIC THAT 'CUT THROUGH' THE ROAD IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THE ROAD HAS A NUMBER OF BENDS AND A HILL - IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OCCURS.

On arrival, Watch Commander Dowden was confronted with what should have been an ordinary flat fire. He and his crew were fully conversant with the techniques that would have allowed them to deal with such an incident. It quickly became apparent, however, that this was no ordinary incident. The defective cladding that had been installed around the block allowed the fire to spread rapidly and engulf the entire building. No-one could have imagined that such a scenario would ever occur in the UK. Watch Commander Dowden was in sole charge of this incident for over an hour before a Senior Officer arrived to take over. His performance far exceeded what would normally been expected of an Officer of his rank. It was only Watch Commander Dowden's actions on arrival and subsequently until his relief that prevented the death toll from being much higher.

There are 2 care homes with disabled residents, school children, families, park users and pedestrians on Thicket Road. Residents are scared to walk the pavements, road users are out at risk. Speeding is constant and violation of the one way system rules are regular. Nightime "racing" and mopeds are hazardous. Traffic and reckless driving are common throughout the day. This road has been described as "hell" and a "race track" and it is time that Bromley Council consider residents above statistics.

We must reduce the amount this chemical is used because of the wildlife and nature impact. The bees are unable to live around this chemical and the plants it's used on. Bees are in serious decline and need our support. Tests support it is carcinogenic to humans too, can be linked to cancer, liver and kidney damage, diabetes. There are many other means available online to give ideas for how to replace this chemical and rid the streets from weeds. We managed before this came along and we have a moral duty to manage now, for the bees and insects, and human wellbeing.

The recent changes to the 666 bus service are a barrier preventing access to vital healthcare services. Timetable changes introduced on the 3rd June 2018 have seen an already limited service dramatically reduced. Prior to this date Stagecoach ran 7 daily services on weekdays between Faversham and the William Harvey Hospital. The new timetable changes now mean only 2 services per day run between Faversham and the William Harvey Hospital. These changes adversely discriminate against those with limited mobility, the vulnerable and the elderly users of this bus service, who previously used the 666 as it served as a direct route to essential health services at the William Harvey. For many users, the increased journey time and problems of changing onto a connecting bus at Ashford Park Street has made this journey dangerous and distressing.
