Without this facility children with life limiting conditions and their families will suffer and there will be an impact on NHS services in the local area that are already overstretched and cannot provide the type of care that Forget Me Not specialises in. The work they do is so important, let’s hope none of us ever need their support but it would be reassuring that should we be in that difficult position, Forget Me Not would still exist to provide help and care.

Fracking has been proved to pose many health risks to people who live close to sites as well as numerous threats to the surrounding environment. The Government declared climate emergency back in May 2019 - it's time to start taking action and divesting from fossil fuels- instead of promoting the use of this filthy, dangerous and unnecessary process.

South African safari operators are targeting the UK to promote holidays where tourists can hunt down and shoot captive-bred lions in fenced areas from which there is no escape. The tour companies are booked for the Great British Shooting Show in Birmingham next February, which describes “the dark continent of Africa” as “the ultimate hunting safari experience”. One of the exhibitors, Umlilo Safaris, offers packages including lion trophy hunts “in fenced areas”. Another, Legelela Safaris, offers giraffe hunts for $3,000 and baboons for $200. Prices for elephants, rhinos, lions and leopards are available on request. The safari firms are capitalising on a rise in trophy hunting by British big-game hunters. We need to shut the show down as it promotes hunting, and we need to ban purveyors of hunting in all forms.

I haven't seen my daughter since she was 3 months old when she was abducted to a foreign country by my husband. She is now 7 years old. Not a day goes by when I don't think about her and worry about her safety, in such a dangerous and unstable country. My heart is broken without her, I have missed so much of her childhood and I ache to be re-united and hold her in my arms. I cannot give up until I find her but I cannot do this without help from the government.

To Her Majesty's Government, We call on the UK government to practice its influence to bring to a halt the brutal military campaign led by Syrian and Russian forces against Idlib province in northern Syria. Syrian and Russian forces have violated the September 2018 ceasefire agreement with Turkey. Internationally forbidden weaponry and indiscriminate bombing tactics are in use against unarmed civilian populations. Hospitals, schools and places of worship are systematically targeted. According to UN estimates, 3 million people reside in Idlib province. 1 million of those are children and 40% are people who fled to Idlib to escape Syrian and Russian atrocities elsewhere in Syria. An immediate action is imperative. We call on the UK government to take the necessary political actions to save millions of lives.

The lack of resources to support people who become mentally unwell is leaving people in a grey area. If they're too unwell to work, but not unwell enough for admission to a psychiatric ward, they often can't get the support they need. The NHS Health and Wellbeing Recovery College is a groundbreaking mental health recovery college where people experiencing mental health issues can receive non-clinical, educational support to self-manage their recovery. Since opening, the college has supported over 1200 students in learning resilience and self-management, so they can take control of their own recovery. And it works - students who attend the college are much less likely to be re-admitted to secondary care. But now, Pennine Care Foundation Trust have announced that they can no longer fund the college. They’ve asked the 5 Boroughs Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) to fund it, but they have said no. Without funding, the college will have to close. On the 31st of July 2019 there's a public meeting with the CCGs to discuss the fate of the college, and we - the students from the recovery college - need as many people as possible to sign our petition before then. Together we can make sure this vital recovery college stays open.

Victoria uses a wheelchair and has been awarded transport for eight years, but now that she is 16 the funding has been stopped. I'm more than happy to pay towards the bus but Victoria's place has still been refused. The city council have said that travel assistance up to 16 is statutory but only "discretionary" for those of sixth-form age. Without transport Victoria who has a mental age of around 6, faces having catching two buses to get to Selly Oak Trust School everyday. Victoria uses a wheelchair for long distances. Victoria finds it difficult to understand danger or cope with busy places. It is extremely important that Victoria is allowed to carry on using the bus.

This is a worrying time for employees of DXC in Chesterfield, their families and the wider Chesterfield Community. The workers at DXC Chesterfield provide services to dozens of customers from this site including critical services and a number of public sector organisations. We want to save these high skilled jobs for Chesterfield and are very keen to ensure that the vital services provided with pride and care at Chesterfield, can continue to be provided from Manor Offices. If these job cuts go ahead, the impact on the local community and the local economy of Chesterfield will be widely felt throughout the town.

We, the clients, and users of the buses had not been consulted or informed. Prentice have been running this service for 21 years. In that time families and children have been incredibly happy with Prentice and the service they provide. There have been no serious accidents and parents feel that children are safe, even in extreme road conditions, with the Prentice drivers. Prentice drivers go above and beyond to make sure that the children get home safely. They are friendly, the children know the drivers and feel comfortable on the buses. Prentice keeps the vehicles up-to-date and in good condition. They are also fully committed too low carbon emission buses. Drivers know the parents, and have even on occasion waited with the children if a parent was late home. It's more than a ferrying service to and from school. Prentice provide a community service where parents feel reassured and comfortable putting their children on the Prentice buses. We believe East Lothian has chosen to put cost over service and safety. They have ignored the views of the clients and not sort a consultation.While the new bus company has yet to prove to be a safe reliable service, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the current service this is simply a cost cutting exercise, which could potentially put our children at risk. We accept that East Lothian council have the right to sign a contract with the new bus service. However we reject changes East Lothian council seek to make. We are the clients and we have the right to br consulted and notified of this matter. We petition the council to immediately review the contract and reinstate Prentice as the sole provider for the buses at Knox Academy.

The proposed closure of Southfield and Wyatt house nursing homes means uprooting 56 elderly and vulnerable adults, many of whom have dementia, and moving them to whatever vacancies are available in nursing homes in Gloucestershire. It also means a reduction of nursing home beds for older adults in Stroud by 64. The county council’s cabinet will determine whether to close the two care homes at a meeting on July 24, so we don't have long. If the plans go ahead residents will be forced to move out by Christmas. Closing two of the town’s care homes at the same time means it will lose over 60 rooms and will likely lead to more people being housed further afield and further from loved ones.

Holiday lets are ripping Scotland’s communities apart. In some places, there are now more holiday lets than normal homes for rent. That means families with nowhere to go are forced out of the places they’ve called home all their lives. But it doesn’t have to be like this. The Scottish government are asking the public for views on what to do about holiday lets, and together we can make sure we win real protections for our communities. The big lobbyists protecting companies like Airbnb will be working double-time to stop any new regulations that could hit their astronomic profits. It’s down to us to drown them out.

As part of the new development the developers have suggested the trees will stay, however as I am training to be am architect and currently work in a practice myself I know that there are ways and means to get around this to build more houses and fell the trees. We need to prevent this by signing this petition to get the woodland protected and get a TPO on them trees! Think of the cleaner air we get Think of the foxes, squirrels, woodpeckers, hedgehogs and many other animals that are allowed to roam the woods free from human disruption.
