• Reinstate the Stockport Metroshuttle bus
    • The Metroshuttle bus, until its withdrawal in April 2019, provided high frequency bus access 7 days a week to much of the town centre including the bus and train stations, market and Central Library. It was of great value to elderly and disabled passengers. • Stockport Council has declared a Climate Emergency. It and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority have obligations in respect of carbon emissions reduction and air pollution reduction. The Metroshuttle helps in meeting these objectives as well as reducing traffic congestion. This was a highly valued service which should be built upon and not scrapped.

  • 🆘STOP OUR NEIGHBOURHOOD BECOMING A DUMP!
    We the undersigned are outraged and appalled by the increasing incidence of fly tipping in the area which has become a major problem. What were once quiet suburban roads, parks and beauty spots are now hotspots for dumping of all manner of illegal waste. Not only is this an eyesore and extremely hazardous, but living amongst these conditions is detrimental to our physical and mental well-being, furthermore it serves to de-value the neighbourhood and we demand to put a stop to it now! If you share our concern or have anything further to add regarding this disgusting, anti social activity, then please sign the petition and make your voice heard. Add your photos, comments and suggestions so that collectively we can bring about a change:

  • Save Woodside Halls
    Woodside Halls provide valuable space for community groups to meet, be it Yoga, Kung Fu, dance, Capoeira, meetings, AA, tango, creative art therapy.... the list goes on. All of these activities rely on cheap hall hire. As we come out of the pandemic, mental and physical health support is proving to be vital, and being able to attend classes could mean a lifeline to many. In addition, Woodside Halls are used as rehearsal spaces for many groups and are vital to the recovery of Glasgow's Cultural scene.

  • Save our Services in Glasgow
    Glasgow City Council and Glasgow Life cannot be allowed to ravage our city’s heritage. These services are not a luxury, they are at the heart of any cohesive community. Our community assets should not be regarded as a cost to the public purse but an investment in the health and wellbeing of our community for generations to come. Glasgow says No. We will fight these cuts. OUR CULTURE! OUR HERITAGE! OUR SERVICES! OUR FUTURE! Below is a list of public assets that are vulnerable to closure. These services belong to the People of Glasgow and in a post-Covid world their continued existence will be crucial to improving the quality of life of the city's population. The list so far includes: Barmulloch Library Couper Institute Library Gallery of Modern Art Library Maryhill Library Whiteinch Library Balgrayhill Community Centre Couper Institute Hall Garrowhill Community Centre Geoff Shaw Community Centre Langside Halls Molendinar Community Centre Pollokshields Community Centre Ruchill Community Centre Shettleston Community Centre Tollcross Community Centre Woodside Hall Provand’s Lordship Scotland Street School Museum and Janitor’s House St Mungo’s Museum Alexandra Park Golf Course Bellahouston Bowls Bellahouston Pitch and Putt Caldercuilt Playing Fields Castlemilk Bowls Cathkin Pitch Drumchapel Bowls Glasgow Club Petershill Glasgow Club Yoker Glasgow National Hockey Centre Glenconner Park Greenfield Park and Football Pavilion Halgreen Avenue Playing Fields Hogganfield Pitch and Putt Ibrox Football Centre James Lyndsey Memorial Park Pitches Kelso Street Pitch King George V Playing Fields King George’s Field Knightswood Pitch and Putt Linn Park Golf Course Lister Street Bowls Lochend Football Centre Maryhill Bowls Maryhill Tennis Mount Vernon Football Pitch Netherpollok Playing Fields Netherton Bowling Green Netherton Pitches and Pavilion Penilee Secondary School Pitch Peterson Park Pitches Queen’s Park Pitch and Putt Queen’s Park Bowls Ruchill Golf Course Scotstoun Sports Campus Outdoor Hall Springburn Bowls Victoria Park Bowls Victoria Park Rugby Pitches Victoria Park Tennis

  • Petition calling for urgent improvements to accessibility in Ramsgate
    We the undersigned are appalled at the lack of accessibility in Ramsgate. People with disabilities, including wheelchair users, mobility scooter users, those who need to use other walking aids are being continually discriminated against by being denied access to our town and amenities. There are, Insufficient dropped curbs Poorly maintained dropped curbs Poorly maintained pavements Appalling signage Lifts not working No access to the beach Insufficient crossings on main roads Poor access to many shops and cafes Too few disabled parking bays KCC need to take urgent action to allow us full access and to respect our human rights as people with a disability.

  • Save West Kilbride Library
    Our very attractive Library Building overlooks the village of West Kilbride and has stunning views across to the hills. Our Library is one of the most well used in North Ayrshire and has the potential to increase its service by developing links with other creative and educational projects. The IT suite was in constant use. Attendance at a public consultation drew one of the largest oppositions in the Local Authority. This is one of the most unpopular moves suggested by the Council and compares with their disastrous decision to close public toilets and swing parks - both of which are now viewed by communities as a complete mistake.

  • British Gas to return furlough payments
    British Gas received £27m of government support during the Covid pandemic for employment retention. During their claim for tax payers to support furlough payments British Gas issued a fire and rehire notice which has resulted in over 1000 engineers leaving the company and up to 700 being dismissed by not signing new contracts on worse terms. It is morally wrong for British Gas to accept tax payers money while deciding to dismiss their engineer workforce. Sign this petition to support our request for British Gas to return tax payers money immediately.

  • Save the Couper Institute and Library
    The Couper Institute and Library are important community facilities in the southside of Glasgow. Built in 1887, the Institute has served as an important venue for community groups and organisations for generations. The attached library was build in 1924 and is an important community resource we cannot lose. The Couper was under threat in the 1990s and the community came together to fight the closure - we need that same solidarity again. The Couper is noticeably missing from any reopening plans and this is extremely worrying. The community calls upon Glasgow City Council and Glasgow Life to ensure both the Institute and Library are reopened as soon as COVID regulations allow. The Couper must not be forgotten!

  • Let Sussex Homeless Support use Elmore Rd's available wasteland
    We have asked for it to place 2 or 3 of our pods, the first one is ready to place, these are single story 20ft x 8ft they will sit on stilts so do no damage to the ground, we will not be taking trees down or digging mass foundations. The area is used a fly tip and is often full of rubbish as it was on the day we visited. Our idea is to blend in and join a community, we hope the community engages with us. None of our clients require parking spaces. Our tenants will be selected to match this project and the rents set low will allow them to start work build up savings and move on to a bigger home. It is so important for us to get this project running and it has to be central. Please show your support and sign this petition. By 2022 there will be an estimated 250,00 homeless in England. They will be living in Temp, Emergency and the Streets. Our project is a first home and a genuine plan to lead people back into the community and away from being homeless. All we can do is be there give support and hopefully see a change. If these changes do not work a recent study shows by 2030 we could have as many as 2 million Homeless. We believe the community hold the solution.

  • Immediately Pause Gravel Extraction at Watersplash Farm, Shepperton
    The Watersplash Farm area is at high risk of flooding due to climate change and no 3-D modelling of fluid flow in the subsurface. The Farm is adjacent to vulnerable areas such as Fordbridge Park mobile home park. The effects of Climate Change have not been fully disclosed by SCC or CEMEX who are extracting the gravel, a vital flood defence, and replacing it with impermeable clay brick. This is a risky venture with potentially devastating effects on the community. A flooding disaster is just around the corner if we do not pause this anti-scientic project. Who will pick up the bill? The community, of course.
