Didcot's population has grown rapidly due to the creation of three significant housing developments. Along with local infrastructure considerations there needs to be provision of leisure facilities. Didcot has a vibrant mountain bike community thanks largely to its proximity to the Ridgeway. While this offers miles and miles of bridleway to improve ones fitness those looking to develop other bike skills need to look much further afield, often involving a drive, an option not available to the younger generation. The physical and mental benefits of any sport are well defined and mountain biking is certainly no different. Furthermore by providing enhanced leisure facilities we may be able to discourage anti social behaviour in the community. I believe a mountain bike park in Didcot would promote the town in a positive way, in line with the objectives of the garden town plan and promote physical and mental health in our local community.

Not only will it have a big impact on local business as when out with our dogs we may grab a coffee and food. People exercise a lot more down the beach with dogs.

It is important because people in the above groups have been forgotten about in this pandemic and it needs to stop. People with autistic spectrum disorders and all people with learning disabilities should be included not left out. And put on the scrap heap as they usually get done to them so they have a voice now

Both Bewerley Park and East Barnby have been providing Outdoor Education to pupils in North Yorkshire for many years. The staff at these centres are the most experienced you will find. It's not just a case of taking some kids on a trip to try a few activities. What they provide are vital life skills. No other centres (that I have taken school groups to) come close to the knowledge, understanding and support like BP & EB do. In a time when mental health and the aftermath of COVID will have a ripple effect for many years to come EB & BP are equipped and ready to roll out support across the county ASAP. They support schools with learning outside the classroom, pupils with SEND, introducing pupils to new activities, provide experience to gain life skills. They support staff with training, confidence to deliver, first aid and Midas training along with opportunities to gain qualifications in various Outdoor Adventurous Activities. There are 45 staff at risk of losing jobs but also North Yorkshire and all the schools within North Yorkshire losing a vital place that can't be replicated anywhere else.

Elder Road junction has split highways management between Lambeth and Croydon and for years has been left without improved crossings. It is cross border, where Central Hill is principally managed by Croydon, and Crown Dale is principally managed by Lambeth. We request a joint cross-border approach to: - investigate, consult and report what layout changes and other interventions would improve road safety at the junctions with Elder Road and Central Hill and Crown Dale; - introduce new road safety measures by schools (Croydon and Lambeth side), especially to address school opening and closing; - reduce dangerous speeding by drivers, and consider 20mph due to the concentration and number of local schools, and its steep hills; - and encourage increased walking and cycling locally, to make safer access to local parks, to many local schools and health services on this road, and to seek funding for highways improvements. Also important, is to tackle other dangerous junctions on Central Hill (at the Salters Hill and the Westow Street junctions), and further along Crown Dale. This section of A214 (from Crown Dale to Crystal Palace) sees too many Killed and Seriously Injured (KSI) casualties. We want a safer future for everyone who lives, works and goes to school on these local roads. Add your reasons for signing with concerns you have about safety on this road.

To stop corruption in British politics

The pothole problem within Angus is costing the people who live there money with unnecessary car repairs that could easily be avoided if the council fixed the problem.

Why is this important? 1) Environmentally, Bricketwood is already suffocating from road traffic pollution from the surrounding motorways and A roads. 2) Residents in this small village cannot and should not be subjected to any further impact by the addition of 12 heavy goods vehicles plus 6 heavy goods trailers continuously entering and exiting the site multiple times every day via all connecting local village streets and roads. 3) The applicant should find a site specifically built and managed accordingly and suitable for there business operating needs, ideally being located within a business park or industrial estate from which other similar businesses operate and of which were built solely to accommodate such vehicle use and business operations as the applicant provides. 4) If the site is to be developed and or used, it must be used solely for the provision of new housing, though officially the site is registered as a green belt site and as such should be left empty. If not, then the only consideration of use must be for new housing, enabling inner London home owners and or first time buyers to move out and enjoy village life, without the daily pounding of heavy goods vehicles on our streets. 5) Many people walk to the local school of which already, the pavements are not wide enough and on many occasions pedestrians are forced to actually walk in the roads to pass others also on foot and especially more so now with COVID! 6) Increased numbers of heavy vehicles will create additional noise and vibration for residents and will set off car alarms as lorries thunder pass and potential damage to building. 7) Station road (the road in which these vehicles would be operating from), has a public foot path on just one side as the other side is woodland. This endangers pedestrians and motorists on the on coming opposite Lane, when heavy goods vehicles such as in the application, have to drive over the centre white lines (as the existing roads are no wide enough), simply to get to to link roads. 8) There is a small bridge also on Station Road with a low height restriction. The bridge is positioned on what is a very sharp bend (90 degree corner and blind spot), which these large vehicles cannot maneuver around without crossing the centre white lines, causing a possible fatal accident with an either an on coming vehicle on the opposite side and or a pedestrian. 9) The amount of vehicles within the application are approximately 6 times as many as operated by the previous site users. Not only 6 times more, but will probably access the site 2 to 3 times every day, creating 54 individual heavy goods vehicles up and down our residential roads every day, 7 days a week from 6.30 in the morning to 18.30. This is unacceptable. Please sign so this can be stopped immediately

Many local residents are worried by these incidents and many now feel unable to use this area (the largest accessible area of green space in North Dunstable) to exercise their dogs due to the risk. This will force more people to use other green spaces in Houghton Regis etc. It's not ideal in a pandemic to have to travel in the car to exercise dogs. There are at least ten dogs dead or very seriously ill in the last year (and possibly many more, as many people didn't realise the frequency of the issue until last summer). We're deeply concerned by the ongoing nature of these incidents and worried about the safety of families and pets who use the area.

When Exxon or BP create an oil slick, they are made to pay for its clear up. Rightly so! But the likes of Coca Cola and Nestle and many others are creating a plastic slick all over the world and they walk away without a care in the world. And they blame us! The world is struggling under the weight of all our waste, very little of it is actually recycled, and wildlife especially then oceans is suffering. Plastic is being found in the guts of innocent creatures everywhere and they are dying as a result. Fishing tackle and nets are being dumped overboard killing countless animals needlessly and no one does anything to stop it. Its time that producers were made pay for the costs they cause us in dealing with the waste disposal and recycling and also for stopping and clearing up the pollution in our environment. A scheme to incentivise fishermen not the chuck nets away is overdue. It is time for the environmental cost of plastic pollution to be taken account of. It is well documented now that certain chemicals in plastic are causing fertility problems in humans and wildlife. The end result of all this pollution is unthinkable. It is in humanity's power to stop it and we should start with making the polluters change their ways.

Powys County Council wants to close our local primary school. If Churchstoke primary school is closed, children could go to English schools, and Powys County Council would have to pay to bus them there. This school is important because there are more family's moving into the area and would have an impact on working family's like myself to have a school that is local to us. My partner works full time as a support worker my boys go to that school and 1 of them have autism the other suspected autism/adhd since we moved to the area and the boys went to the school they have come on realy well my oldest has 1to1 and if the school closes down will have a negative impact on them mentally and emotionally and with change will take them back to square 1. Keeping the school is really important for both the children and the local area.

District nurses have 24 hour responsibility for caseload of patients, most of the time over 100 patients, DN are first line mangers to teams of community nursing staff. District nursing is losing experienced nurses to hospital environments due to the lack of professional recognition and associated pay scale. As DN service transforms to meet the needs of the population, the care DN provide is complex and unlike hospitals, our wards are never closed, we are the wards without walls. Any investment in District nursing is to protect admission to acute care and not as a specialist service in its own right. With money invested in prevention admission , enhanced community care and acute frailty teams. District nurses were previously thought of as pillars of the community, supporting families for centuries. Now they themselves are requiring to be supported The people of Scotland deserve to have highly specialised community nurses in the heart of their community; improving health outcomes, supporting self care and providing end of life care at home. Please give the DISTRICT NURSES the professional recognition and the financial equality of hospital based nursing staff in Scotland
