- Local people, across the country, are demonstrating that they are opposed to reorganisation plans - In many place there was totally inadequate consultation about plans for A&E closures and wider hospital reorganisations - Urgent Care Centres are an untried alternative to local A&Es - A&E services are under severe strain at present - further reducing these as we come into winter means lives will be put at risk - Reorganisations are driving an increasing privatisation of our NHS together with the Health and Social Care Act and growing threats from TTIP The petition is the initiative of Save Our Hospitals: Hammersmith and Charing Cross.

Children’s social and mental health services are failing to protect vulnerable children in the UK. It’s not just Rotherham though. The NSPCC estimates that for every child on a child protection plan, there are another eight who are being abused or neglected. 500 Children’s Centres have closed since 2010 and 73% of Social Workers say they can’t do their jobs properly. Two thirds of local authorities have cut their budgets for child and adolescent mental health and 88% of Social Workers say that budget cuts have left children at increased risk of abuse. Huge numbers of unfilled social worker posts (3800 in England alone) are leading to untold misery for tens of thousands of children. This is leaving children at risk and the workers who have to try and protect them, demoralised and struggling to cope. “Enough is Enough”, a recent report from the Centre for Social Justice, describes the current child protection and mental health system as “abhorrent” and that suffering children face “grotesque injustice.” Now an Independent Children’s Task Force, made up of child protection experts, has been formed by Kids Company’s SEE THE CHILD. CHANGE THE SYSTEM campaign. The task force will completely redesign child and adolescent social care and mental health services. We hope this petition will persuade all the political parties to support the Task Force's new delivery model - and to commit to piloting it in two Local Authorities so it can be put to the test. It’s true that children can’t vote and vulnerable children are completely invisible. It shouldn't be like this and with your help we need to stand up for them and show politicians that we care. No child or young person should be left to suffer alone. This is the nation’s best hope of ensuring that all abused children can get the help they need, when they need it.

The public are in very real danger of losing the NHS as we have come to love it if the Conservatives retain power after May 2015. The NHS at its very best is universally popular - across supporters of the main political parties. But only Labour has the chance to end the privatisation and marketization of our health care. Were Labour to come out in support of the 5 Points in my Petition, they would enjoy cross-Party support and earn the right to rule.

Without a hospital for the whole of Bedford and its surrounding area lives will be lost! Milton Keynes is our nearest hospital already overstretched because of the growth of Milton Keynes. It is totally unacceptable to leave the County town of Bedford without a hospital. People will die as a direct result.

Having to travel further than necessary to Cannock Chase Hospital for breast surgery, having never visited the hospital before, will place patients, their families and carers under even more stress. The Breast Cancer Action and Support Group feels that the consultation process on the proposed changes to services has been rushed and not well-publicised. Many Wolverhampton residents the group has spoken to are not even aware of the proposed changes, or that a consultation period should be allowed.

It was "born" in Tredegar & vital for the health and welfare of the whole of the UKs population and should remain as it was intended. FREE for the people

At the moment hospitals across Wales and the NHS in Wales are struggling to survive and staff are stretched to the limit. . We need to fund more nursing staff and also to stop the current ridiculous abuse of the system where people go to A&E just to get a packet of Paracetamol or Calpol for nothing or ask their doctors for medication they do not need and probably will not take. A basic charge of £3.00 would stop such abuse of the system, and there could be a cap of £10.00 if people needed several items. This additional money would transform our NHS in Wales and provide jobs for much needed nursing staff.

The way that these potentially harmful new Tariffs are being introduced does not accord with the stated intention of NHS England and Monitor who say they are committed to setting national tariff in a manner consistent with the principles of transparency, evidence-based policy – making, consultation with the sector, and impact assessment, as well as in accordance with statutory duties.

The staff provide a service to the community and they feel they need more consideration to any changes being made. They are passionate about their Trust and the service they provide but feel unappreciated with the lack of communication regarding important issues such as the increase in parking charges.

Cumbria already has Sellafield. The Sellafield site has the biggest amount of radioactivity on the planet. A major accident involving the liquid high level waste tanks would have catastrophic consequences and make the area uninhabitable for many generations. The area around the Sellafield site should be an untouchable buffer zone to: a) provide a measure of safety for surrounding towns and villages b) to accommodate the documented leakage of radiation from the Sellafield site into groundwater. c) to minimise the target area for terrorist attack (instead of doubling it) Instead of honouring a beautiful wildlife diverse landscape bought by the public purse and guaranteeing a buffer zone around Sellafield the UK government are planning to sell off a vast area. The land stretches to the villages of Beckermet, Braystones and Calder Bridge. Not only this but the companies who are being wooed to buy the land are the very same companies responsible for Fukushima. "The Moorside Project" is being promoted by NUGEN a company 100% owned by Toshiba. Toshiba’s proposed three new reactors are AP1000s. These are the next generation of the same old uranium burning technology. The difference is that these reactors burn the uranium for longer and harder. The resulting radioactive wastes are much hotter and have to be cooled for decades longer. The NDA have told Radiation Free Lakeland that the fresh water resource for cooling is “a matter for the operators.” Currently Sellafield uses over 4 million gallons of water daily to abstracted from Wastwater, the River Ehen, the River Calder and boreholes in the area. Sellafield stopped producing electricity in 2003. The elephant in the room is of course Toshiba’s track record in nuclear safety. Toshiba supplied the steam generator, architecture and reactor for Fukushima reactors numbers 3 and 5, while Hitachi (merged with Toshiba) supplied the reactor, steam generator and architecture for Fukushima reactor no 4.

Everyone has parents who may need care as they age. Unless you die young you will all get old and may need care. The cost of caring for old or disabled people and children is for the most part payed for with taxpayers money. It is outrageous that private equity companies can profit from need, financed by tax money of ordinary people and pay poverty wages.

Last year 3700 children were taken into care in Leeds West Yorkshire a large percentage of these children were found to be ADHD considering it is a hereditary condition none of the parents have been informed that they to could be ADHD and if they are they could be treated and then get their children back. This is just one year and one area I believe it will be happening all over the country.
