Re-open Blackpool Foyer for the homelessSign the petition to show Blackpool council that they should allow homeless people to take shelter in Blackpool Foyer during the winter season.Homelessness in Blackpool is getting higher and higher, and there are 38 empty flats that are clearly available. For three years now the Blackpool Foyer has been closed,which has 38 flats that can be used to accommodate young homeless people between the age of 16 to 24 during the winter season.The Blackpool Foyer can be very useful over the winter period rather than an empty building with no purpose. I seriously think Blackpool Council should be considering using the building to help the homeless in partnership with Great Places Housing Group and other organisations.3,737 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Daniel Bennison-Carr

Save Dunstable MarketDunstable is a historic market town and the charter belongs to the people not the council. We, the people wish to preserve our market and return it to the thriving trade centre it used to be. Generations of traders have kept the tradition alive and they are central to our community. This isn't about money, it is about the ethos of Dunstable as a market town. We demand that the council fulfil the will of the people and preserve the market in its current format and work to promote it and attract new traders.614 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Yousef Hasan

Hands off Good Hope HospitalThis change would do nothing to improve patient care and the costs of doing it would be significant. With the NHS under severe financial pressure to suggest that money to be spent on an unnecessary name change is rather insensitive. There is no apparent desire for this change among the staff or patients. The name has a long history and connects to the original benefactor and it will always be know as 'Good Hope' to those of us who have used its services. There are far more important matters affecting health care where your assistance would be appreciated.1,107 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Tony Cannon

Save disability Day Centre in FalkirkBecause it will isolate the Adults who use these Day Centres and they will have nothing to look forward to also they will miss their friends and activities and the independence they have and it will stop Parents/Carers having much needed respite and time to their self. My daughter Marie who is affected by closures has fought back after 2 strokes caused by a rare disease called Moyamoya will with my help fight these 2 closures to secure a long term future and choice to attend the day centre to help in my independence and choices how I live my life which will benefit me. Day centre users pay a fixed price every month whether they attend or not either due to sickness or holiday they still have to pay for day centre3,387 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Michelle Lochrie

Save the Tunstall Green Man from permenant closureBecause there has been a pub in Tunstall Village since 1828 and no body wants to see that disappear, knowing it would never come back. The recent ownerships of the pub have not been suitable to the business, so the pub has struggled. The community wants to have a say in the future of this asset, and how it is run.208 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Kirsty Stutter

Keep busking legal in BournemouthMost buskers and street performers earn a large portion of their income from busking and street performance and in some instances all of their income. Implementing such a policy would have a dramatic impact on the performer financially and could lead to them being fined or given an Anti Social Behaviour order. This is totally unjust and the council should reach a compromise which will be beneficial to all concerned.1,367 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Jamie Swainston

Upgrade Corby Urgent Care Centre to a first class Urgent Treatment CentreThe Government is planning a roll out of Urgent Treatment Centres across the country. Corby's Urgent Care Centre is equipped with most of the components of an Urgent Treatment Centre so would cost less than any other option available to the STP. Corby CCG have confirmed that change is needed in the area and this would assist in bringing about this change.676 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Lyn Buckingham

Animals do feel pain and experience emotionUnder EU law, animals are currently recognised as being capable of feeling pain and emotion. This MUST continue if we are to be a humanitarian nation after we leave the EU.161 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Nikki Bertoya

Save the Old Heath ChurchPlease save the Heath Old Church. Located next to J29 of the M1, this is our hidden local gem, that is under threat from Hs2. The village of lunt and le Hethe first mentioned in the Doomsday book in 1086 united to become Heath some time during the 12th and 13th century. The church was built in the 11th century and used by monks for 500 years. It is very sad to think this will be destroyed by Hs2. The building is grade 2 listed the village is subject to a preservation order due to its significant archological and historic significance. The grave yard easily contains 500 + deceased, most st ill have relatives living in our community. Please sign our petition and save this piece of history. Many thanks, from us all.1,412 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Summer Parry

Stop Speeding in LlandogoTo all those who want safer roads, to all those who love walking, cycling, sightseeing and living in the lower Wye Valley and to all those who are fed up of seeing reckless drivers using rural village roads like motorways, please sign this petition. Currently drivers travelling through Llandogo can break the speed limit, driving at whatever speed they want, when they want. And they do. We have the data. Vehicles have been logged by Llandogo Community Speed Watch driving 60-70mph. Drivers even overtake other vehicles in the 40 and 30mph zones in order to maintain their high speeds! We are the only village on the A466 not to have prominent road signs or any traffic calming. Even villages on surrounding B roads have better measures with rumble strips, driver feedback signs, pedestrian crossings and islands. For some reason though, Llandogo does have yellow lines preventing parking roadside at weekends, when other villages are unrestricted and their parked cars serve to slow traffic further. Speeding was identified as the No.1 concern for Llandogo residents in a recent community consultation, but because the village is not an 'accident hot spot' Llandogo has been completely overlooked by the authorities. The sad truth is, the community is being impacted 24/7 and it's not positive. As traffic speeds, intensity and road noise have all increased the residents have had to adapt, changing their behaviour and curtailing activities they once enjoyed, such as walking, cycling, running, even gardening and playing games; health-boosting, sustainable activities. Crossing the road on foot can be intimidating, especially for the elderly and the young heading to the school and bus stops. Well used footpaths end abruptly at the road edge with dangerously little visibility for both walker and driver. Pets are regularly killed or maimed on the road. Manoeuvring out of driveways is often met with aggression from speeding drivers and close misses are too common. Local people actually fear to cycle on this road. A serious road traffic accident in Llandogo this summer involved an Air Ambulance evacuation of a cyclist from the village green. Cyclists and pelotons are often cut up by speeding drivers taking risks. Speeding and aggression on the A466 is a constant topic raised by tourists to Llandogo. If we do nothing it will only get worse. Please sign this petition to make Llandogo a safer and more pleasant place for the local community, for visitors and for all road users. Let's stop drivers breaking the speed limits in Llandogo.443 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Nickie Moore
