Re-open the HWGA entrance on Handsworth Wood RoadWe would like you to reconsider the decision made in closing the school entrance gate based on Handsworth Wood Road and re-instate the caretaker at the start and end of the school day as in previous years. The walking time to school has significantly increased with the closure of the Handsworth Wood Road entrance gate - a 10 minute walk has now become a 30 minute journey. This has also resulted in increased congestion during peak hours on an already busy Church Lane as well as contributing to an increase in carbon footprint as even more parents drop and pick students to and from school. Furthermore, since the school has a responsibility towards safeguarding its students - does this not include their journey to and from school? Especially at a time when parents are hugely concerned about grooming gangs and their often discreet operations targeting students near Girls' schools in Birmingham. We do understand that the government has cut school budgets and currently balancing the school budget is an extremely challenging if not impossible task. But, as parents the safety of our daughters is paramount and we need assurance that the school journey is as accessible as possible. We hope that this petition will help you to review your decision and allow your students to feel safer by providing an easier route to school as well as focus their energy on their schoolwork rather than their lengthy journey times.80 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rohina AKRAM

Save our Disabled Children's TransportCoventry Council are making the families of disabled children pay £600 a year for transport to and from school. This service used to be free, but now families are being forced to fork out. The wellbeing and education of disabled children is being put at risk. Disabled children should not be punished for going to school.2,229 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Mandy Siddiqui

£15ph minimum pay for all NHS employeesThe NHS is under a constant growing strain, with all members from all areas of the MDT feeling the push and are having to work twice as hard to meet with the ever-growing need, and let's face it these people's are saving lives...., missing out on there quality family time so they can keep your family's happy by giving you the gift of more time with your loved ones, these people are constantly training to update there skills spending hours of studying to help improve new way of helping us in the future. Yet some of these people are payed less then someone that could be found stacking shelves at your local supermarket. I believe all NHS workers should receive a minimum of £15ph.69 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Liam Bailey

Save South Tyneside District HospitalBecause the population of South Tyneside are struggling to get medical attention with shift of facilities from south shields to sunderland. The town of south shields becomes unsafe and unaccessible to live in. The elderly and chronic patients will have to shift from their beautiful town of south shields and move to sunderland to have an easy access to facilities, the town of south shields will become an unsafe place to live in specially in an emergency, the shut down of STFT will create more of unemployment, the nursing homes in south shields will have to slowly close down due to reduction of residents because who would prefer to live in a town with no access to health facilities. This is what happens to south tyneside if the departments of STFT are close down, eventually shutting down the only acute care facility in this town forever.457 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Sujith Thankachan George

Get a pedestrian crossing for Lancaster Road, Hinckley, Leicestershire.This is very important because it is very dangerous & extremely busy. A mother with a child in a pushchair already had an accident there & there is nowhere safe to cross at all. I am sure if they don't do this soon, there could even be fatalities.485 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Louise Crisp

Don't Shut Down Our One Stop Shops!John Biggs led Tower Hamlets Council is planning to shut down One Stop Shops in the borough which provide invaluable services to our residents, friends, family members and loved ones. This means there will no longer be face to face service about parking, housing benefits, council tax, welfare etc. for the local community in stand-alone One Stop Shops with their expert knowledge and expertise to help residents – many of whom would be vulnerable in a distressed situation or in need of help. Yet again, while the Labour Mayor of Tower Hamlets John Biggs enjoys his own 11.7% salary increase – the residents’ services are being slashed and those most in need are left to fend for themselves. The rationale or ‘excuse’ provided is to move the service online which will alienate the elderly, those who do not use a computer, find reading a challenge, special needs or for whom the first language is not English. Separately, there are also concerns about data breaches or information being passed on to third parties using the new wi-fi model. There is a genuine fear that the face to face service will completely disappear even if any temporary stop-gap-measures or a promise to see complicated cases at future date was made initially to get the changes through now in order to manage any protest or to negate the complaints from the users, staff and others. I have raised this important issue with the council in detail and am awaiting further information and answers in relation to the concerns many residents and I share about this cut which will mean there will no longer be any stand-alone One Stop Shops in the borough. Please sign the petition and pass it on to your friend, families and those concerned so that we can put pressure on the Mayor and Council to stop this decision.276 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Maium Miah Together We Can

Keep Eastham Walk in Center openWirral has four walk in centers at present, three are in Wallasey and Birkenhead (The North of the Wirral peninsula) and only one in Wirral South where there is an ageing population. It takes two bus rides and a five hour round trip to attend Arrowpark (nearest) from Eastham. The closure will result in more calls for ambulances and a greater strain on Arrowpark A&E triage services, and the risk of families and the elderly not being able to attend. This could lead to further complications and emergency cases. Once again the residents of Wirral South take the hit and are disregarded to bolster Birkenhead and the northen end of the Wirral. Please sign this petition, say NO to this closure and show your support in keeping our only facility in Wirral South open. Thankyou389 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Christopher Carubia

Cabinet Minister for DisabilityCare & Disability deserve a place alongside Health and Education as one of the great offices of state. The UN recently described the plight of people with disabilities in Britain as a “human catastrophe”.The Equality and Human Rights Commission says disabled people are second-class citizens. Hit by cuts and a punishing assessment system many people with disabilities are in the fight of their lives. They feel marginalised and humiliated. We need a new approach and the best place to start is at the top. A junior minister in the DWP is the wrong person in the wrong place. Ask party leaders to show their commitment by appointing a Cabinet Minister. Sign the petition.2,609 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Alain Catzeflis
