• Safe Crossing at Hangingwater & Whiteley Wood Road
    Please help us get over well over 5000 local people supporting this campaign as it will force Sheffield Council to properly debate this issue in the open. We have until the end of September to do just that. Help get Sheffield City Council to finally bring in urgent traffic safety measures to protect over 100 children who regularly use this route to go to three local schools in the area. The urgency of this was brought home to us when our daughter sustained serious injuries in late 2015 from a car going less than 20 mph when she was on her way to High Storrs School. This school is the closest catchment school for Nether Green and Fulwood. However the walking route has no footpath in places and no crossing. The path opens up into a T junction (picture). The Council has admitted that the lack of footpath across this junction is dangerous and they won’t even place a School crossing warden there because of the danger. Now the Council have said after months of talks that they will not consider installing a crossing or altering this dangerous footpath to what is the most direct route to High Storrs School, Notre Dame School and Nether Green Junior School. It is only a matter of time before a child or another member of the community receives life changing injuries or death as a result of the council's inaction.

  • Fume Free Fridays (or Sundays but I couldn't find a rhyme)
    The world is going to s*** and we're destroying it at an alarming rate what I'm proposing wont stop it but its a very small step in the right direction and in the mean time it might help slow things down while someone smarter than me comes up with a real solution and if we go fume free on a Sunday it'll make the least upheaval to things like buses, postal service and the like

  • Make a Staff Car Park for Meadowhall staff on the Next side of the centre
    The staff car park as it stands now is secluded and unsafe. As a young worker in Meadowhal myself, I personally do not feel safe walking from the staff car park to my store - which is on the far side of Meadowhall - early in the morning or late a night when there is next to nobody about. Having worked in Meadowhall for almost two years I have heard these issues brought up on numerous occasions however Meadowhall choose to ignore them. Staff that park in 'customer' car parks are issued with £95 fines, to which they are threatened with court action until paid, and I have seen many of this fines stuck on cars recently proving how many members of staff choose to take this risk as they do not wish to risk parking in the staff car park. That being said, the staff car park itself is unfinished and has caused damage to staff's cars in the past. If a person's safety isn't enough, risk putting your car in there and risk creating a large bill at the garage. This is disgraceful and it needs to change now!

  • Reverse your decision to stop accepting Derbyshire Wayfarer tickets
    For many years the Derbyshire Wayfarer has been a popular and convenient way of exploring the county by bus and train, and is vital for sustainable tourism. The TransPeak route is a useful link between the major tourist centres of Matlock, Bakewell and Buxton. Withdrawing certain bus routes from the scheme makes the ticket less attractive, and passengers are likely to be confused if the ticket is valid on some buses but not others on the same route.

  • Save the 19 & 20 bus services in York!
    The 19 and 20 bus routes serve areas of the city which are not covered by other bus services, so the council's proposals will cut off a vital lifeline to the residents living along those routes, especially those who are old or have limited mobility. Reliable and frequent bus services near to where people live reduce congestion and air pollution, both of which are major problems for the whole city. Cutting these services will force even more people to drive, making these problems worse. This is part of a major consultation on bus services in York and we will be submitting this petition as part of the response to the consultation.

  • Stop this shambolic Sussex Ambulance privatisation
    On April 1st a woefully-ill-equipped private firm, Coperforma, replaced the NHS’s South East Coast Ambulance Service in a botched privatisation of NHS services. The mobile phone app the company uses often doesn’t work, especially in areas of poor mobile reception and its own ambulance drivers have said the company is ‘out of its depth’. The result? • Cancer patients have missed oncology appointments after ambulances failed to turn up to collect them. • Patients with kidney failure have not been able to receive scheduled sessions of kidney dialysis for the same reason, with some missing two of their three treatments in a week. • So many patients have become stuck at the Royal Sussex County hospital in Brighton because their transport has not arrived that it has paid for taxis and other private vehicle suppliers to take them home. • Staff there have had to stay until midnight to ensure kidney patients arriving hours after their scheduled start time have received vital dialysis. • Coperforma vehicles have turned up to collect patients who have already died. Patients, relatives, NHS bodies, Trade Unions and local MPs have severely criticised the service’s performance but still local CCGs persist with the untenable private company. The previous public provider regularly had approval ratings of over 90%.

  • PLEASE replace and widen footpath urgently!
    As only weeds grow either side of that path maybe consider widening it making much more accessible to local nursery, school children and the local elderly residents. Come the summer the nettles grow and last summer were 4ft tall for a lengthy period of time before cut back. Long nettles hardly a safety net for the numerous excitable Young children on scooters and bicycles. After all are we not constantly striving to promote children being active? A high volume of children use this footpath daily and it's in a terrible condition. Also many local elderly residents use this footpath. Yesterday mid morning I tripped on this uneven and unsafe footpath and suffered mild head injury and a nasty bruise to my chin. I work as a Teaching Assistant in the local school and arrived visibly upset and shaken. I could have been that elderly resident, expectant mother or other.
