We at 38 Degrees St Ives Branch, and the Cornwall Cancer Team, find the proposals without merit. Many cancer patients will have to travel much further for treatment every day for a number of weeks. This will be detrimental to their recovery and it is doubtful that all sick patients will even undertake such a venture and may instead opt for a more detrimental treatment or even no formal treatment at all. More people will die as a result. The travelling regime of a potentially two hundred miles plus journey for treatment every day (a 6-hour minimum round trip per day from W Cornwall) over 6-7 weeks will not aid recovery. Also travel costs reimbursement schemes and assisted travel have been severely cut. Public transport is not an option across much of Cornwall and is expensive for someone on benefits or pension. This is unjust. We have over 500,000 residents and the proposed regional centres are for half a million plus, so this shouldn't be an issue in any case. Such a plan also ignores the distinctive demographics and geography of Cornwall and that RCHT in Truro already provides (and paid for) equipment and expertise, which will consequently be under utilised. We have a good, modern facility here in Cornwall which needs to be used to capacity, not under utilised due to a centralising cutting exercise because we fall a little below the numbers threshold - we have unique geographic, demographic and economic constraints in Cornwall which mean we need our own facility left intact.

As many of you know, at Inclusion Ventures we offer a range of support to young people aged 7+ and their families. We run a number of our sessions from Coppins Hall Community Centre in the 'Base' room, in the last six months alone we have been running up to six sessions a week from the centre supporting around 15+ children in each session. We had a re-launch of the Inclusion Ventures space back in March this year, where the staff and the children took on the task of making the room into a safe, welcoming and home from home type environment. Being at the centre of this estate our sessions have been used to meet the needs of the community, we have offered from these sessions a variety of support. Support includes: -Emotional Support - Mentoring -Sports Activities - Arts and Crafts - Drama - Music - Relationship Building, -Health eating -Restorative justice -Employment -Family Support -We also know that healthy eating is a big concern of many of the parents of our young people so we also use these sessions to provide healthy meals free of charge. For the time being we will continue to support our young people as we know they are the most important people in all of this and will unfortunately be the most affected by this change. We will be providing out reach services and offering trips to local organisations at the times when sessions would have been on whenever possible. This petition will be a vital way of showing funders and the local council that Inclusion Ventures needs a space of its own within the Percy King community in Clacton to fully meet the needs of our young people. So we need your help! Please could you sign the petition and leave any feedback you have about the services and the need for Inclusion Ventures to continue being a part of such a fantastic community. We are so sorry that this is happening and for the inconvenience it will cause. Please be assured that all of the Inclusion Ventures team are working hard to get this issue resolved. You can contact us on 01255 688685 for any further information or concerns.

Castleberg Hospital is a small cottage hospital in Settle where I recently spent two and a half weeks as a patient. Living in a rural community these small hospitals are important in terms of travelling for treatment or visiting. In November Airedale, Wharfedale and Craven Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) launched a three-month consultation about the community health service. There are two options the consultation is looking at: 1. continue to provide inpatient care in the community and repair or restore Castleberg Hospital 2. provide more care in people’s home or another community place and close Castleberg Hospital Losing Castleberg Hospital would be a huge loss to the area and would mean patients will have to travel further for care. Please sign the petition and make sure we keep the service open.

There is a young 8 year old boy called Jack who was admitted to Alder Hey Children's Hospital on the 25th October 2017, SEVEN WEEKS AGO. Jack lives with autism and has mental health issues; extreme low self-esteem, suicidal. Jack has recently had a severe mental breakdown - hence the stay at Alder Hey Hospital. Jack was assessed as a tier 4 and has been waiting in hospital for a bed to come available in a children’s unit, for SEVEN WEEKS. Jack or his family have been offered no support from CAMHS in the past seven weeks. This is the reason why; Jack has been assessed by the Tier 4 team(in-patient CAMHS unit) and is waiting on an inpatient bed becoming available. This means they cannot work with Jack in his current environment (Alder hey hospital) only once allocated a bed within a unit, So, Jack does not fit the CRITERIA for tier 3 support (community), and can not access the tier 4 support until he is an inpatient in their unit. It is imperative that the government increase funding for children's mental health to prevent this level of waiting time and the dangerous gap that exists between accessible support in a crisis.

This is important because it could undermine both children's services right across Lancashire and the whole viability of Lancashire NHS trust itself.

I have just seen yet another post on social media of a child very badly injured after these drawers have fallen on them. Luckily the child escaped this time, however how many more children need to be injured or even to loose their life, before these dangerous drawers are recalled worldwide!

Monklands has one of the highest rates of COPD in the UK and exceptionally high levels of pollution. To operate an incinerator in the middle of where we live, work and where our children attend local schools and nurseries will be detrimental to the health of the most vulnerable in our community. The emissions from this proposed plant will not only disperse in Shawhead and Carnbroe, but also in the wider area covering Airdrie, Bellshill and potentially further. If you live in North Lanarkshire we ask you to sign asap. This is not just for you but for your children and grandchildren.

Bath NHS are proposing to stop funding male vasectomies and female sterilisations in Bath and North East Somerset (BANES) in all but exceptional cases. This will force people to have to pay if they want these contraceptive services. Privatising access to vasectomy and female sterilisation services will affect the most vulnerable members of our community. We should all be free to choose the most appropriate method of contraception, and that decision should not be limited by ability to pay. Real poverty is back in Britain and unplanned pregnancies impact hardest on the most vulnerable. Help us to keep comprehensive contraception available to all on the NHS.

The Redcliffe Surgery is one of the largest GP practices in the borough, with approximately 17,000 patients registered covering the Earl’s Court, Redcliffe and Courtfield wards and planning to move to the Violet Melchett Clinic off the Kings Road. In previous research on health care provision in the area the majority of the local GPs are either to capacity, private or out of borough. This issue can be discussed at the borough's Adult Social Care Scrutiny on Tuesday 16 January and the Council meeting on Wednesday 24 January.

Due to fylde coasts uniquely shallow waters the dumping of 19000 tonnes daily would wreak havoc along the whole of the coastline,destroying all micro organisms and right the way up the food chain. Livelihoods through fishing,shrimpers and recreational anglers are all going to suffer from this devastating ecological disaster. Please sign and let's save the North West coastline from pollution.

This is a huge community based campaign in Huddersfield. If the Hospital Trust is succesful, we will be without a hospital for a population of 250,000. We have taken out a judicial review but we also want the Independent Panel set up by Jeremy Hunt to intervene and stop the closure. If the closure were to go ahead, we would undoubtedly see people not reach hospital in time to receive emergency care.
