In spite of 180 written objections, plans for a quarry at Crow Nest have been given the go ahead. The consequences of the plan include: - Large lorries carrying quantities of heavy rock, bringing intolerable levels of dust, noise, pollution and congestion to our peaceful community. - Dirt, disruption and noise from the quarry itself, which is set to operate daily between 7am and 7pm. - The closure of all footpaths and traditional rights of way on Crow Nest common. - The destruction of the woodland that runs behind the football pitch and beyond, involving the loss of the native animals, birds and wild flowers that have made it their home. - The loss of the large, grassy meadow that borders the golf course, which will be turned into a bare and stony landscape for the dumping of mining waste. Please sign this petition to help ensure that Hove Edge retains it's much valued green spaces and remains a peaceful and pleasant place to live. Such a beautiful, precious space. Home to over one thousand trees and Marshalls want to destroy it!

If the NHS A&E moves to a new Hospital at least 50 minutes away by car or ambulance from Llanelli and if Prince Philip Hospital is down graded to a Community Hospital 100,000 people will be severely disadvantaged and some people will not be able to access the NHS services because according to Hywel Dda, they will not have enough money or a car. Losing immediate access to our Health services could cost the lives of people that you know.......or your father or mother or daughter or brother or son or sister or Mrs or Mr......this is key .....for you and for me........please sign to help prevent this.

From a local resident and campaigner Sam Trask: "Last month, our 5 year old little girl Lucie was admitted to the children’s ward in the Royal Glamorgan Hospital, suffering with a nasty kidney infection. She was treated for the following 6 days, and between us, my wife and I spent the entire time in hospital with her, whilst the other managed to take and collect our other daughter from school, do a couple of shifts at work, and try and keep home life going. Were it not for the ward being local, maintaining school and family life would have been virtually impossible. During the time we spent there, Lucie received excellent care (and has since made a full recovery), and we noted that even though the ward is due to be closed this summer, it was busy the entire time and even overflowing into the ward next door some nights." Closing this ward would mean there would be no children’s in-patient care anywhere in Rhondda Cynon Taff. We are very concerned that losing this ward would mean that a great number of families will face long travel times to either the Prince Charles hospital in Merthyr Tydfil or the Children’s Hospital for Wales in Cardiff, and huge disruption to their lives because of it - especially if they have to use public transport. The same applies to obstetric services: if the maternity ward is closed women in the area, particularly from the tops of the two Rhondda valleys, will face an arduous and unnecessarily long journey either to Cardiff or Merthyr. I believe these proposed closures will put more strain on the already overstretched ambulance service and I believe that lives could be put in danger because of the extra travelling time involved. We the undersigned call on Cwm Taf University health board to maintain obstetric and paediatric in-patient services at the Royal Glamorgan Hospital, as it is a well used and valuable local service to the people of Rhondda Cynon Taff.

Wester Ceddens Road links local residents to 4 primary schools, 1 secondary school, 2 nurseries, local shops and 2 churches. During term time the council provides 4 school crossing patrol personnel however, outside of school drop off, lunch and pick up times residents risk their lives attempting to cross Wester Cleddens Road. Furthermore, numerous housing developments have been built on and around Wester Cleddens Road which has increased traffic and the population.

Out of hours services are absolutely vital and should be delivered locally here in Dunfermline. Centralising services in Kirkcaldy will make the service inaccessible to many residents in Dunfermline and West Fife. We want to see NHS care delivered here in Dunfermline at our local hospital.

People born with 22q can have upto 180 medical issues. There are only very few 22q clinics that are for children in the UK. DiGeorge Syndrome is either having part missing chromosome 22q or having duplicated chromosome 22q. Within these clinics you get seen under Cardiology, Immunology, Psychology, Peadiatrics 22q specialists and referrals are made to multiple clinics there after if needed. Everyone with DiGeorge syndrome is affected differently and it's difficult to predict how severe the condition will be. Most children survive into adulthood. As someone with DiGeorge syndrome gets older, some symptoms such as heart and speech problems tend to become less of an issue, but behavioural, learning and mental health problems can continue to affect daily life. Many of those who reach adulthood will have a relatively normal life span, but ongoing health problems can sometimes mean life expectancy is a bit lower than normal. It's important to attend regular check-ups so that any problems can be spotted and treated early on. Having a 22q clinic for adults means they would be receiving lifelong checks and it could help improve health and have longer life expectancies. Just because turning the age of 18 doesn’t take away DiGeorge Syndrome or it’s health effects. It’s so important it is valued in all ages. Some young adults are experiencing mental health issues and having a clinic to observe and support them who have great understanding of the condition would be extremely beneficial. DiGeorge syndrome can cause a range of problems, but most people won't have all of these. Some of the most common issues are: learning and behaviour problems – including delays in learning to walk or talk, learning disabilities and problems such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or autism speech and hearing problems – including temporary hearing loss due to frequent ear infections, being slow to start talking and having a "nasal-sounding" voice mouth and feeding problems – including a gap in the top of the mouth or lip (cleft lip or palate), difficulty feeding and sometimes bringing food back up through the nose heart problems – some children and adults have heart defects from birth (congenital heart disease) hormone problems – an underactive parathyroid gland (hypoparathyroidism) is common and can lead to problems such as shaking (tremors) and seizures (fits) Other possible problems include: a higher risk of picking up infections – such as ear infections, oral thrush and chest infections – because the immune system (the body's natural defence against illness) is weaker than normal bone, muscle and joint problems – including leg pains that keep coming back, an unusually curved spine (scoliosis) and rheumatoid arthritis short stature – children and adults may be shorter than average mental health problems – adults are more likely to have problems such as schizophrenia and anxiety disorders.

Skateboarding, scootering and associated activities are hugely popular with young people. There is a high demand for somewhere safe and exciting in the town for skaters to use. At present, most skaters use the station car park. They deserve something better. There is a great deal of evidence to suggest that provision of resources like skate parks greatly reduces youth crime and unrest, which benefits the local community and contributes to making towns more vibrant places to live.

To make the UK a better and healthier place to live,and independent of other countries for our energy .

St Clears is a small village in West Wales with a population of under 3000 residents. We already have 2 fish and chip shops, a subway, a kebab shop, pizza bar, 2 indian takeaways, 1 chinese takeaway, Starbucks coffee and a chicken rotisserie bar. The proposed development of a drive through McDonalds and Costa coffee is not needed. Travellers driving through can call at the McDonalds in Carmarthen 10 miles away or make use of the host of other local businesses in St Clears, or the Roadhouse restaurant a few miles further on. As a community we have concerns regarding the impact of the proposed development on both the health and wellbeing of the community. We believe that the development is at odds with Welsh Government sustainable development charter and wellbeing of future generations act which aims to promote long term health and wellbeing of people and communities in Wales and reduce obesity and other chronic illnesses. The area considered for development is already very heavily burdened with traffic coming from both the A40 and A477. The addition of traffic slowing down to enter the facility would impact dramatically on the flow of traffic, causing potential risk for the pedestrians using the area as well massive environmental impact in terms of air and noise pollution, destruction of nature habitats and littering. We want the council to turn down planning application for this proposed development. Please sign this petition and support our village.

The Children's ward at Boston's Pilgrim Hospital is under threat of temporary closure because of staff shortages. As the largest county in England, with it's population spread over a large area of mostly agricultural land it is imperative we keep this vital children's ward open. Grantham Hospital is also scheduled to close, so where are all the children going to go? This could put lives of children at risk! Telling parents they simply have to drive further is not acceptable. Not all parents can drive, or have access to transport over long distances. What happens when the other hospital children's wards are all full? Surely this will just increase the pressure on other hospitals which are already at breaking point. Will children be refused treatment if no beds are available? As the population is expanding why are essential services shrinking? What impact will this also have on the maternity ward, and children born requiring treatment or special care.

I have always regarded Clifton Hill sports centre as an asset to the city and understand its importance within the community. The facility has attained excellent user numbers over the years and its closure would not be in the best interests of the city The centre closed in March due to a roof leak and a burst pipe, but the council won't commit to a reopening. Help the city get its much loved Clifton Hill sports centre back in service! It has left an irreplaceable void in peoples lives. It was a real community hub used by all ages from toddlers to pensioners and all socio economic groups. Exeter is bidding to be the UK's most 'active city' and so closing the centre is insanity! Come on Exeter City Council tell us it will reopen - it was only some snow through the roof and a few burst pipes!

This another important service to Coventry people that is stealthy been made private. This service is vital to local people but also needs to be kept public and not fall into the hands of private companies such as Virgin or Care UK. In a city of over 300,000 people the GP Out of Hours Service at the Stoney Stanton Walk-in-Centre is essential to help stop our local A&E departments being overwhelmed. Please take the time to sign this important petition which we plan to hand into the CRCCG by the end of May. Many thanks from all at Coventry Keep Our NHS Public (COVKONP) campaign group.
