This park has always lacked a slide for children, the park is in a prime location surrounded by 3 schools and many children, a park should always have a slide kids love them, it completes a park, it brings happiness and the kids enjoy one. Instead we are left with vandalised barriers surrounding the remains of what used to be a slide at the height of summer. This particular slide was only installed just over a year ago after a year long request to have a slide put in as the park never had one. It is not the councils fault that it was vandalised, but I hope this campaign will perhaps get things noted and help restore our lovely park.

As a parent, I am extremely concerned about the impact of dirty air on Birmingham children, including my own two sons. I urge everyone who cares about their children's health to sign my petition. Air pollution is a public health crisis, with illegal and harmful levels of air pollution across the UK. We need national and local government to act to clean up our air and make our towns and cities a healthier place to live for everyone but especially for babies and children. Air pollution affects us all, from when we are in the womb through to old age. It is linked to premature births and can stunt lung growth in children. Air pollution can trigger heart attacks and strokes, worsens asthma attacks and causes lung cancer. Babies, children and older people are more vulnerable to the impacts of air pollution. We need the Council, with the support of national government, to take urgent action to clean up our air to protect the health of children and babies.

Farnborough Community Centre is used regularly by over 50 local groups and societies during the day and evenings, 7 days a week. There exists no other comparable place to serve the community needs in the area. Many groups may have to fold at the end of the year if they cannot find suitable alternatives at affordable rates. My group, Blackwater Valley Friends of the Earth, has been meeting here for over 15 years and we have become part of the Centre family alongside other groups so important to local life. This historic military building is owned by Rushmoor Borough Council who should be investing in the needs of the local people by properly funding in its infrastructure and every day operation for the future.

It is well reported that foodbank use in the UK has seen an unprecedented rise in use. They rely solely on public donations to feed people. Because it is government policy that has caused this rise, they must intervene now. Foodbanks are running out daily and face the awful task of turning people away. Health and wellbeing is at severe risk. These charities are doing the government's work free of charge. This must change.

The no. 17 bus is more than just a bus from A to B. It is a lifeline for many elderly people who live in the area, they use this bus service for companionship. When this bus is withdrawn many of these people will be left housebound; not able to walk to the local shops and not able to afford a taxi. St Marys hospital is expanding with more appointments being held there, with the new service cutting out a large portion of the route many people will be unable to get to the hospital, again too far for people to walk and taxis being far too expensive for OAPs to afford. It is not only the elderly this will affect, it will also affect the kids getting to school, students attending Portsmouth College, people getting to work. First Hroup are axing this service as too many old people enjoy this service.

Forestry is practiced in remote otherwise unpolluted places . These powerful biocides ( alpha cypermethrin and acetamiprid) cause damage to ecosystems, enter water courses including private drinking water supplies. The industry is poorly regulated and breaches of existing (inadequate) guidelines are frequent. Guidelines are based on flawed , incomplete and outdated data. Complacency is endemic throughout the industry. I have worked in the Forestry industry for 35 years running one of the few ( or only) female led contracting businesses in Forestry in the UK. Two younger members of my family and many good friends also work in Forestry. Foreign studies link both commonly used chemicals with health problems among Forestry and nursery workers . An FOI request has not so far turned up any short , medium or long term studies in the uk . So far no studies exist into whether these chemicals get into water supplies. But we know they do. We got samples analysed pre and post a very small scale planting and have proved the presence of 2 banned substances in a private supply and acetamiprid in a stream nearby ( it took me months to get a buffer zone agreed upon in an attempt to protect my supply-guidelines were broken. So what to do . 1) ban the use of these biocides 2) invest heavily in the continued development of alternatives ie natural waxes and physical barriers 3) practice better more sustainable forestry ( smaller clearfells , more species diversity etc) Sweden is rapidly phasing out the use of insecticides due to environmental and human health concerns . The rest of Scandinavia and the Baltic countries are following. The implications of poisoning many of the bottom rung of the food chain should be clear to see but again no environmental follow up studies are done.

The Grey long eared, Lesser and Greater Horseshoe bats are nationally scarce species that need protecting. if anything, the barn should be preserved for what could be a site of importance. There are only an estimated 1000 Grey long eared left in Britain, and studies suggest numbers are still falling. if this development is granted planning permission, the whole surrounding area will be affected. currently there is a healthy food source directly next to the barn, which would be removed to make way for the new building. and a very active Badger sett would have to be relocated. these are the primary concerns.

The hall stands derelict and if not preserved for future generations will be too damaged to save. The park is a lovely place to visit but requires better facilities to make the experience a more interesting one and generate income to improve it. The council are being evasive, it's been up for lease and had many applicants willing to renovate at their own cost for use as a tea room, visitor centre and office use however, all have been refused without explaination. The council have done this with other buildings most recent of which ended up demolished and is now a KFC. Demand transparency and that the council keep this beautiful, historic, grade protected building.

The Flashes are a very unusual phenomenon. The water comes & goes. In winter there are several lakes full of water & in summer they can almost dry up. Usually the main Flash always has water. The biodiversity of the area attracts all kinds of bird & wildlife. Many of them are endangered & on red or orange lists which are promoted as in need of protection & conservation. Some of them breed on the Flashes, some of them overwinter as part of migration. The joy of this area is that it is available to all & is used by many bird watchers & photographers as well as walkers. Someone who can't walk can sit in a car at one side & watch bird activity. A novice bird watcher, like myself, can quickly pick up knowledge & interest by watching each day as different birds come & go. One day a flock of lapwings, another day there might be oyster catchers, sandpipers, herons, god-wits, shelducks...the list goes on. There is other precious wildlife in the area too, notably the great crested newt, a protected species, but this petition is concentrating on the birds & the role of the RSPB in supporting the plans for destruction. Why spoil an area which has functioned beautifully for generations, which provides rare & unusual habitat & supports so many kinds of birds? There is no need for 300 wooden chalets & a hotel & car parks in this area. There are plenty of nicer places to stay already. Is it really worth it at the expense of bird life?

Hyde has lost many of its iconic public buildings recently and in the past. As a matter of local heritage, identity and community pride it is essential that some key buildings are saved, Hyde library most definitely falls into this category.

Many people rely on these services to enable them to carry out every day tasks such as going to work, doing the shopping, attending medical appointments and meeting with friends & family. South Worcestershire is a largely rural area where public transport is limited and isolation a real risk. In addition to this an over reliance on car use is having a detrimental impact on air quality and health and well-being. These drastic cuts would be devastating.
