Remove the industrial fencing from the childrens' area in St Andrews ParkWhile we accept that the council erected this fence with good intentions it became clear quite soon after that it was not required. Other areas of the park have been open for a long time and it seems this fence is just a leftover. It has though, a detrimental effect on park goers and should be removed forthwith and not be linked to any subsequent decisions over opening the paddling pool.179 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Jonny Gibson

Please, please sign our petition and help team Mouse make this change possible and get our dogs the protection they deserve.844 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Angela Mcleod

Stop the clinically vulnerable from having to risk their lives to get the Covid drugs they needToday there are over 3 million people in the UK who are still clinically extremely vulnerable to Covid. Not only do our underlying health conditions put us at greater risk for severe disease or death, immunosuppression can cause the Covid vaccines to be less effective. Not all of us are mounting immune response to vaccinations, even after four doses, and as of October 2021, 91% of us were still shielding, nearly two years into this pandemic. Right now the only protection the government is offering us is post-Covid infection: We are being asked to take our chances of getting the disease, which may be deadly for many of us, before we can access antivirals or monoclonals to help our chances of survival. We need a vaccine equivalent that protects us proactively so we can go back to living our lives safely. Without this, we live an isolated and perilous existence. Some other countries have already approved monoclonal antibody treatments such as AstraZeneca's Evusheld as prevention against infection for the immunosuppressed community. We ask that these be fully approved, distributed and provided as long-term prophylaxis treatment to the clinically vulnerable in the UK.1,304 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Shannon Banks

Help Derek Get a HomeDerek is one of the politest friendliest men I’ve come across, I’ve walked past him every morning on the way to work for years and he greets everyone with a happy good morning, no matter what has happened to him the night before or how cold the morning is. No one should be on the streets for one night, let alone how long Derek has been there. He’s beyond struggling to get housed and is being rejected left right and centre. The nights are only getting colder, and the streets are getting more dangerous at night for him. Please sign the petition so Derek can take it to the Council and other avenues of housing to show what a positive impact he has on the people in Ipswich. The man asks for nothing, he had started this petition on paper and got hundreds of signatures until some inhumane person ripped it up in front of him. Let’s get Derek out of the cold this winter ❤️336 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Charley Wynn

Reinstate Development Weeks at the University of ChesterOn 8 December 2021 the University Senate decided to remove Development Weeks from the academic calendar in 2022-23, claiming that there is 'no clear rationale for the weeks' and are ‘just a half term.’ However there has been no meaningful consultation with either staff or students concerning their views on this, with the decision only being publicly communicated to staff and students via a portal announcement and email to staff on Friday 14 January. This decision will have a significant impact on the student experience and staff working conditions and should not have been taken without wider consultation. On Monday 17 January Chester UCU unanimously passed a motion calling on the senate to reinstate development weeks and is calling for all those who wish to see Development Weeks retained, at least until there has been wider consultation, to sign the petition below.

SAVE THE FUTURE OF FOOTBALLEach year the Premier League earns around £2.5bn from broadcasting revenue, of which less than 2% goes to professional clubs below the championship. That’s 140 clubs: The 24 clubs of League One, the 24 clubs of League Two, the 12 clubs of the Women’s Super League, the 12 clubs of the Women’s Championship, AND the 68 clubs in the National League. It is time to reallocate football’s wealth fairly and incentivise good behaviour. That's why a fan-led review into football has been carried out. It’s recommending introducing stronger financial controls, proper fan engagement and meaningful equality standards. And that it's all overseen by an independent regulator that has the power to enforce these changes. All of that can be brought together by the introduction of a Sustainability Index that gives money to clubs who score highly on four criteria: - Financial Sustainability - Good Governance - Equality Standards - Fan and Community Engagement32,087 of 35,000 SignaturesCreated by Fair Game

Save Sea Road Supermarket Site - SunderlandYou don't have to be a regular Sea Road shopper to want the place to thrive. It serves people of all ages and it's a thoroughfare from Seaburn Metro to the beach, especially in summer. The paper version of the petition also says: "We are also concerned that, at a time when there is a need to reduce vehicle emissions, people will be forced to make additional car journeys because they no longer have a store that sells a wide range of reliable quality goods within easy walking distance."875 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Tony WILD

Stop the SEND crisis in schoolsMany schools are so ill-equipped and under-trained to deal with SEND issues, they either treat the child’s hidden disability as a behavioural problem, or blame parents for “exaggerating” (or even causing) their child’s needs. School is not an emotionally safe place for many SEND children, and absenteeism due to mental health difficulties is sky-rocketing, even amongst primary-age children. The trauma and damage these experiences cause is immeasurable, and sometimes life long: Many children fall out of the school system completely because they can no longer cope, meaning they never get the chance to fulfil their dreams or potential. As hidden disabilities become better recognised, this problem is only going to grow. SEND children need action, and they need it now.493 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Lisa Green

Save our X3 Market Harborough to Leicester bus serviceThe fact is that public transport and buses in particular are our only route to a low carbon future. We need to start thinking about transport like we do about health and education: we have a right to enjoy car free transport and we need more not less buses on this popular route. The Tories privatised our bus network years ago but services are cut back all the time as their priority is to make as much money as possible for their shareholders rather than provide a decent service for us passengers. Please sign the petition addressed to Neil O'Brien MP and let's stand up for our bus services, passengers and staff .776 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Peter Whalen

Tyne Tunnel FinesIf you want an ethical system in place for the Tyne Tunnel and wish to ensure penalty charges are not being used to harm ordinary working class individuals and families then get on board. The change in how the Tyne Tunnel operates has caused chaos for road users with many being stung with fines that they did not deserve. This entire system needs to be reviewed and it is the TT2 Limited company that is responsible for deciding it's penalty charge policies.21,654 of 25,000 SignaturesCreated by Gary Spedding
