• Proper recognition for health and social care workers
    Clapping was just a token gesture. However, awarding a fully funded paid extra 1 day annual holiday will show proper due recognition for their brave effort infighting Covid 19 and looking after the nations health.

  • University students paying private rent & utilities to a property that is empty.
    These young adults are paying dead rent plus utilities costs electricity etc. For being home due to a National lockdown. They are going to have to eventually pay back the said fees for university yet they are paying for a service they will not be getting. So that includes rent for property’s that are empty. Yet still having to be payed.

  • Provide Free Data and Unlimited Broadband for Students
    Students are currently being hit by the triple whammy of still needing to pay rent and fees, not being able to work part time and having reduced access to hardship funds due to increased demand. As a result of this lots of students simply cannot afford the data and broadband which is now required in order to keep up with their studies. These factors further exacerbate the pre-existing attainment gap between disadvantaged and their advantaged counterparts in Higher and Further Education. According to research by the Office for Students, across the UK in the first term 18% of students had their ability to study affected by a lack of access to the internet, a figure which is higher for students with disabilities, students who are the first in their family to attend university, student parents and students of colour. It is therefore critical that free data and unlimited broadband is made available to students so that students don't suffer from 'digital poverty'. It is time to provide Free Data and Unlimited Broadband to Students.

  • Parity for all care workers
    We put it to you, that it's totally unjust that carer workers whom are paid by the local authority, have to log in and out, ( paid by the minute). Whilst staff working in the NHS, whom travel from house to house, are paid from start to the end of the working day. It is grossly unfair to ourselves and our clients. We demand parity. Please sign our petition.

  • Repair and replacement of the paths, steps and walkways on the Calvert Way Estate
    There are a number of health, safety and welfare concerns about access and egress on the estate which is becoming more of an issue by the day due to increasing use since the opening of the Keswick to Threlkeld railway path. A number of pedestrian paths, steps and access routes are in a poor state of repair and are hazardous . The step and walkway access to the site on both sides is very hazardous and there is an increased risk of slips, trips or falls. The steps are extremely large, buckled, warped and rotting away. The wooden handrail alongside the step access to the road by the leisure centre is rotting away and loose. At the base of the steps a hole has appeared in the tarmac. The path running adjacent to the leisure centre at the back of the houses has completely collapsed at the end nearest the Keswick Bridge time share. The steps on the central mound on the estate are also collapsing and the paths are made from loose hardcore rubble posing a trip hazard. The increase in footfall through and around the estate is degenerating the paths further. The estate is home to a range of different people. The poor state of repair to the access and egress route on the estate is particularly challenging for those families with young children, elderly residents and disabled residents. It is important that the access and egress route are repaired and improved without delay to prevent avoidable accident or injury.

  • Reimburse 2020-2021 student fees
    All people have been impacted by the coronavirus. However, students have invested in their education and have not received adequate teaching or an adequate education in general. Students seem to be the forgotten generation. It is time for the government to step up and resolve this.

  • Freeze on council tax increase and other price hikes during the pandemic
    Covid has had a huge negative impact on the world which goes without saying, I understand that businesses are affected.. But so is the general public, it is an absolute outrage that there will be a freeze on the living wage while everything continues to rise, A lot of people can't even go to work, yet we are all having to pull together to keep the country 'ticking over' where does the government get off when hiking up prices and not giving an ounce of a payrise on the living wage? It's completely bonkers and unbalanced.
