Because there has been a pub in Tunstall Village since 1828 and no body wants to see that disappear, knowing it would never come back. The recent ownerships of the pub have not been suitable to the business, so the pub has struggled. The community wants to have a say in the future of this asset, and how it is run.

1. Noise Pollution – we are currently being woken some morning at 5am and 6am with deliveries and very loud trucks passing our houses – this is unacceptable. 2. Parking – Currently the residents have always been allowed to use the parking space outside Travis Perkins, both in the evenings and at weekends when the yard is closed. If this planning application is passed, there will no longer be enough parking on this road for the residents, never mind their visitors. 3. Turning – most incoming traffic heads to the bottom of Elm Grove and turns around – its safe and doesn’t cause a nuisance to anyone. If Travis Perkins extend its boundaries to take over this excess space, how do all cars, trucks, articulated lorries (HUGE!), ambulances, fire engines, care in the community vans (of which there are a lot) turn around in this tiny residential street? As we have seen, some of these huge articulated lorries have had to reverse out of the street, potentially damaging parked cars, setting off car alarms, etc. 4. Emergency Services - there are quite a few mature but ill residents on our street who require collection by ambulance, taxis and care in the community vans to take them to hospital and various appointments – if the road is backed up with trucks and vans, how long before there is a danger to life? 5. Volume of excess business – if Travis Perkins gets permission to extend, this will potentially extend the size of their offering and therefore business going forward, which means even more large vehicles than currently, up to 10 large articulated trucks a day – damaging the street which isn’t built for this weight and potential damage to parked vehicles. 6. Knock-on effect – if Travis Perkins extends, the knock-on effect regarding parking will affect all neighbouring roads and businesses as people will have to go further afield to park their cars, thus potentially endangering them if they have to walk back to their cars or homes late at night, and also putting their cars in danger of being stolen if not in a secure spot. 7. Parking permits – Trafford Council recently carried out a survey on Elm Grove and all neighbouring roads as to the viability of parking permits due to excess parking during the day, at a very large cost to the Council and ultimately us, the tax and council tax payers. If permission to extend is granted, that survey is null and void as the responses will be based on the current configuration of our roads and not on the proposed extension, which takes up the excess parking space we all use. The street cannot cope with the increase in HGV's on the street - please look at this footage and you can see the size of the HGV's that thunder down this road. http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/lorries-battling-up-quiet-cul-13910520#comments-section

With today's threat of terror attacks, it is absolutely vital that Westfield Stratford City has sufficient security staff to implement a safe, co-ordinated evacuation in the event of an emergency. On Saturday 11th November, my 70 year Mother was injured and separated from my 2 young children when they were caught up in a stampede of mass panic, as thousands of people ran for their lives following an incident at the centre. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/westfield-stratford-mass-panic-as-shopping-centre-evacuated-in-fire-alert-a3688671.html

Over the last three years, volunteers have brought a disused and derelict Council plant nursery in the heart of Buxton back to life. We have grand designs for its future. We already demonstrate good horticultural practice, develop skills and confidence, offer a therapeutic setting for people of all ages and abilities, grow produce, provide education and training, and organise events accessible for all. We can do more. With a secure footing - a long-term lease on the current site and original stone-built workshops and stores - Serpentine Community Farm could extend its activities, enriching individual and community life. Instead, a plan formulated by the High Peak Borough Council Executive Team to raise cash from residential development of the site jeopardises all the work and effort of the volunteers. We urge High Peak Borough Council to safeguard, support and save Serpentine Community Farm.

It is important to our business and customers to have access to an outside area

You are aware that the old library in Prestatyn current home to Artisans Collective CIC is offered for sale by private treaty and initial expressions of interest are invited from occupiers and developers. We have expressed our interest subject to funding, but without a fixed price we can not raise funding. When we took occupation exactly 3 years ago we were fully aware that it could be a short term lease and in fact everything we have done to date has been always with the possibility that we could be given 2 months’ notice at any time. This has proven to be a block on obtaining funding. Originally we wanted to use the building as a sales outlet for local artisan products, but quickly found out that there was a need for something else in the community. We now hold community art as therapy and companionship sessions for older and younger citizens, we have developed Mens shed into a standalone entity, we chair Prestatyn Dementia Friendly Community, host bereavement counselling sessions, and are Kew Gardens North Wales Community hub, plus lots more each week. We are already working closely with Healthy Prestatyn Iach who now occupy Ty Nant and we have a golden opportunity for more social prescribing and de-medicalisation activities between us. We gave a major presentation recently to over 250 people including the Cabinet Secretary for Health, Well-being and Sport, our work to date was much admired. We have also presented for the Welsh Audit office as an example of best practice and have given dozens of talks for the Older Peoples commissioner and Alzheimer’s society about our work here in Prestatyn, Meliden and surrounding areas. We find it very frustrating that Artisans Collective are recognised and highly regarded locally and nationally but it seems we are not so much within our own county council. A lot of our work is based around the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 and we are meeting again with the Office of the Future Generations Commissioner’s team in the near future. If the decision to sell the old library is a purely financial decision, may we point out that the Conwy and Denbighshire Public Services Board Well-being Plan (2018 – 2023) states: “The plan focuses on 6 priority areas: 1. The First 1,000 days of life 2. Promoting community hubs 3. Promoting mental well-being for all ages 4. Promoting resilience in older people 5. Promoting environmental resilience 6. Raising resilient and aspirational young people” Link to the document http://conwyanddenbighshirelsb.org.uk/en/well-being-plan/ We currently focus on most of the points above, for the council to effectively close us down would mean that investment by the council would have to be found in the future to facilitate the wellbeing plan in our locality. During the Ty Nant Development Brief Consultation DCC stated: "A joint working group will be set up to take forward discussions on community asset transfer and the potential future uses for existing buildings on the site." "The Brief requires the retention of existing community facilities on site or alternative provision to be made. This could include provision for the occupants of the Old Library." Bangor university researchers are currently working alongside us to quantify and put a value on our 3rd sector voluntary social prescribing activities and we will share the findings in due course.

Currently Cheltenham, Tewkesbury or Gloucester do not have facilities accessible to citizens who have requirements of a more substantial nature than is achievable in even a standard accessible bathroom. This means we are limiting our counties resident’s ability to become “active citizens”, a Conservative Government initiative launched by David Cameron, in our largest civic centres. Facilities are available elsewhere in the county but only within the Forest of Dean and Stroud valleys area. Our main shopping and social destinations are unable to meet the most basic needs of some of our residents and instead revenue and experiences that could be consumed in the City are currently being delivered in Bristol and the surrounding retail spaces. This means families friends and carers are being excluded from our City and its culture. We would like to see Gloucester set an example for the larger towns in the County to follow and ensure that our citizens and economy benefits from the inclusion of all. It is estimated there are 230,000 people in the country who would have facilities adapted to assist them in their homes. There is a real requirement for inclusion outside of that environment. A rough estimate would have Gloucestershire with about 3500 people who require resources available to them in our City Centre to be able to plan a visit to our shops, theatres, or communal spaces for more than a couple of hours at a time. Several other councils across the country have installed and endorsed the fitting of these facilities, with The City of York being one of 5 Conservative led councils to commission them. We believe that there is a case to be answered by the council for the incorporation of a Changing Places toilet in the new developments within Gloucester. Louise Ellis, one of our cities parents whom has adopted children with special needs, is experiencing the effects of this lack of incorporation when travelling with her two children. Both her 9 year old daughter Chloe and her twin brother Jack suffer with Cerebral Palsy, with her son Jack requiring more robust assistance than his sister. Changing a child on the cold floor of a car to prolong a trip into the city center is not unusual and indeed Bristol is the preferred destination for Louise's trips out. Many people suffer with illnesses and disabilities that require facilities that are better equipped than standard disabled toilets. These requirements, such as a changing table capable of supporting an adult, hoist equipment to lift someone safely from chair to toilet or space around the facilities to allow two people to assist, are not uncommon. Tables are placed in baby changing facilities as parents need more than a bare floor to change their child's nappy, yet this is what we expect parents and carers to do with their children and loved ones. The lack of a suitable facility is not the only problem with Gloucester for Louise and her children. The disabled toilets which are available, whilst wholly inadequate, are still their best option. In our City however they are often located on a floor below or above ground, Debenhams is located on the first floor whilst M&S is in their basement, placing another obstacle in their path. The cost of a toilet to be included into a new build is approximately 15k. Conservative councils have led the way in terms of ratification for the CP scheme, backing the organisation more than another other individual party in terms of case studies. This is largely due to the inclusion of these spaces doing a lot to help councils meet the goals of the Active Citizens program and it has been seen as favourable when the City of Culture awards are evaluated. If Gloucester is serious about their bid for City of Culture 2025 then we would like Gloucester to adhere to the principals of the “Active Citizen” initiative and help us deliver a city accessible to all. There are a number of new developments planned -in the new bus station for example- that would have been accessible to shoppers and travellers and as yet do not have plans for a 'changing place' toilet in.

The Salt House has been a public house since 1872 and has now been sold to property developers who wish to turn it into luxury flats and offices.This is such a sadly familiar story in London. We have to stop developers tearing apart what gives London it's pulse and character. The Salt House is one of the few remaining local pubs in the area and has many long term regulars who love it dearly. It is also home for the key staff members and their family who live above it and a secure job for many more. It would be a travesty if this beautiful Victorian pub was granted change of use and disappeared after over a century and a half.

Over the last 7 years the Park has been left to fall into a sorry state . Once used at Christmas for Carol services by the Local church choir and by local town council to deliver community outreach projects. Now we're lucky if it's cleaned once a fortnight and resembles a refuse tip in spite of our efforts to support the local community to keep it clean. The kids play area is rusty and out of date and The Heritage area of the park of Poulton Arch needs lots of work and has become a communal toilet for weeken drunks and gangs of youngsters to vandalise. No Proper lighting also makes the Park a no go area at night and irresponsible dog walkers pepper the grass and paths with dog poop and other rubbish. The bins are also broken and seagulls rip open the rubbish bags dropped by fly tippers everyday a lovely site as kids walk to the 3 local schools situated close by. People don't have to much to begin with round here and now we have one thing less, drug dealers use the Park to do deals and there is little if no social engagement by outreach workers to engage with the local community and provide us support to turn this Park into something we can be proud of. We have tried several times unsuccessfully to approach local council and other assorted people responsible for The upkeep of the Park and we get passed from pillar to post and little if nothing has changed . Hopefully this petition will appeal to the community and wider people at large who will get behind us and help raise attention and give us our Park back!

Skateparks have grown dramatically in popularity and are proven to increase health, well-being, community cohesion whilst reducing social exclusion and anti social behaviour. The Skatepark will not only benefit Skatepark users, it will enhance the Village and will be an asset to The whole community. The new Skatepark will be a free-to-use, safe, inclusive and family orientated sports facility for users of all ages. Professionally designed and constructed by a company selected by the Kibworth Skatepark Appeal with design input from local Skatepark users of all ages.

Each breath we take causes us harm. 25 people are killed each day as a result of air pollution in London. A child born a Londoner today could be 23 before they could expect to breathe clean air. More than 950 UK schools are on or near illegally polluted roads. Children's lungs are stunted by this exposure resulting in life long health impacts. Michael Gove recently announced that heavily polluting vehicles will be allowed on our roads until 2040. This is criminal negligence. Our government are spending UK taxes fighting a legal battle on this issue rather than working to save lives. They have been in court 3 time already. We know clean air is possible and we demand it as a human right. Because our politicians refuse to take responsibility a group of compassionate citizens #stopkillinglondoners are in prison as of 7th Nov 2017 after a week of radical direct actions. They are currently on hunger strike (9-11-17).
