FASD. Em’s law. Mandatory Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder training for all professionalsEms law was started by Ems mother, Ali Mccormick, after her child had been so systemically abused, misunderstood and failed by social care children’s services, camhs, previous education, police, courts and respite carer, that she collapsed from extreme trauma after unlawfully being put on child protection by a social worker not even qualified to do so. She eventually became so mentally unwell from being failed that she tried to take her own life and ended up in a mh unit who unlawfully restrained, failed to provide her assessed needs, injected and abused her and denied her humans rights to even see her family. There is not one provision in the uk for fasd and mh residentially. Over 7000 babies are born every year in uk alone and the worlds most common learning disability in the world, which can, and does, cause devastation to the person and their families/ carers Parents are ignored and often tragically blamed for the behaviour of their disabled child People are being incarcerated in mental health hospitals, prisons or punitive correction centres due to a lack of awareness of fasd and support. This is a world pandemic of injustice, unnecessary pain and monstrous disaster. People with fasd can achieve and do well in life. The correct provisions and scaffolding put in place can change lives. This tragedy needs urgent attention. Please sign and share everywhere, and make Em’s law of raising awareness of FASD mandatory, as well as knowledgeable support services.2,406 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Alison mccormick

The trade were told by the council that money provided by government did not cover any provision for such a grant and wrote to the government seeking permission to use funding that was left over to provide financial assistance for the screens. We were told that there was no response. Over the last few months a considerable amount of Licensing Authorities have provided various amounts of funding to their respective local cab drivers/proprietors without any issues as shown and Brighton & Hove taxi/private hire trade is seeking support to petition council to do the same here. In signing this petition you will be supporting the 1200+ individual locally licensed Brighton & Hove licensed taxi/private hire drivers/proprietors.

Stop Ponders End Barclays Closing on May 2021We the undersigned, traders and residents of Ponders End, Enfield urge Barclays Bank to reconsider their decision to close the Ponders End branch this coming May 2021. We expect Barclays to consider the impact the closure will have on our town leaving it without a bank and their social responsibility towards the community, individuals and businesses who would find it incredibly difficult to conduct their affairs via a post office, on line or by travelling to other branches of Barclays where parking is also a nightmare.291 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Fokrul Meah

Victoria Prentis MP, Please Support and Sign the Climate and Ecological Emergency BillThe CEE Bill, drawn up in consultation with leading academics, scientists, and lawyers, presents clear proposals for addressing our entire carbon footprint, while actively conserving our natural landscape here and overseas. As hosts of the COP26 international climate conference in 2021, the UK Government has pledged to provide climate leadership. Backing this vital Bill is a key step in that direction. This bill will ensure that the UK restores and regenerates its habitats. A low carbon future will build on the successes we have already achieved as a country, protect and uphold rural ways of life, and ensure that British agriculture is sustainable and prominent, which will lead us to a way of life based on sharing not selfishness. We need to be less reliant on countries like China, and instead invest in growing industries like renewable energy, battery manufacturing, and electric cars. This would be a natural step to take to reduce our carbon footprint.

include lgbtq in younger educationEducating younger children about the LGBTQ+ community would help children to feel more comfortable and familiar with themselves when growing up and would help them to identify with themselves without feeling like they have to hide their feelings. It would also help to normalise it and prevent homophobia from a young age.185 of 200 SignaturesCreated by freya persaud

We Must Keep The Disabled Parking Bay At The Back Of The Tor - GlastonburyThis is discrimation against those with disability, and the elderly. There are many disabled and elderly people who come to the Tor and need to park close by, even if they cannot climb to the top of the Tor. There are pathways around the edge. This is an ancient sacred site, and part of this countries heritage, disabled and elderly people should be welcomed to access it. At these times it is absolutely paramount that we stand up for those who are vulnerable in our communities. There is also speculation as to if this parking bay is being removed to make it easier for Wellhouse Lane to become a through road. Along with plans to direct traffic up between the springs, making it difficult for people to stop to get water. Liz Leyshon - Where is your justification for taking away the disabled parking bay? To take away this disabled access bay, goes against your duty as a civil servant to consider all the people in the community and against your duty to consider and adhere to the conditions of the Human Rights Act. Please email Liz Leyshon letting her know that we as the people do not agree with this ‘development’. [email protected]189 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Kirsty Robinson

Funding for ColeMy 8 year old son Cole has uncontrollable drug resistant focal Epilepsy. Cole had brain surgery when he was 2 years old and has tried 20 different medications since he was 3 months old. He was given a prescription for Epidiolex the uk only licensed CBD product however his health continued to decline. I now have a private prescription for Cole for a Bedrolite oil which is whole plant oil and he is the best he’s ever been. Cole almost died in March and thanks to this oil he’s thriving. Unfortunately the NHS won’t fund this for Cole or give this medicine under a NHS prescription so we are having to pay £1000 a month to keep him on the oil that saved his life. I am asking the Scottish Government to put funding in place to pay for Cole’s oil until they do the tests and trials they have been promising me for over 2 year’s. The Scottish Government say it’s inappropriate to fund a private prescription however this life changing medicine is not available under NHS due to restrictive guidelines written by BPNA. We are in the middle of a pandemic and it’s become impossible to fundraise so I’m asking for your help to show your support to have funding put in place for this life saving medicine, and for the Scottish Government to actively engage in finding a permanent solution.
