The tower currently looks like a giant cigarette in the sky, let's be honest. Unmissable from most of Brighton and Hove, it might as well be a power station chimney. But why not take this opportunity to put some colour in the sky! Let's create a true Brighton icon and paint the tower in a rainbow! Truly in keeping with the bohemian culture and community, representing Brighton's unique and true colours, proud of standing out from the crowd. Be brave British Airways, i360 team and Brighton community, let's make a change! #paintwithpride https://s.bsd.net/38degrees/main/page/-/CBY/brighton.jpg

Currently it is only open Friday-Sunday, adding Monday would be very helpful.

The inability to use Paypal's global electronic money transfer system, is hindering the progress of Palestinian owned businesses to exploit markets necessary to their healthy growth, in an location where this is vital. They should have the right to compete on a more even footing with Israeli settlers who suffer no such restrictions.

The ancient legal principle that the Government is not above the law is being flouted by the DWP's implementation of benefits sanctions. David had his benefits repeatedly sanctioned by Jobcentre Plus officials. This resulted in him being unable to control his diabetes because he had no money for food. This caused diabetic ulcers. These became infected and he had to have a leg amputated. All these sanctions were eventually overturned, but it was too late. Other cases of illegal benefits sanctions we are fighting include claimants with learning disabilities, mental health problems and physical impairments having their benefits stopped for being unable to get to totally unsuitable appointments. The imposition of unachievable requirements by the DWP, and then the removal of benefits for being unable to meet such requirements, breaches the Equality Act and a set of legal principles governing the way public bodies should behave called Public Law. We support over 500 people to get benefits reinstated each year. Last year we recovered £507,393 for claimants. Help fight back against the destruction of the social security system fought for by our ancestors. We are also interested in launching a class action class action so if you have been affected by illegal benefit sanctions, please get in touch with us at [email protected].

Community Hospitals provide health and medical services such as minor injuries departments and hospital beds for those well enough to be released from General Hospitals but still too sick to return to their own homes. These hospitals act as intermediaries, providing care for some of the most vulnerable people in south devon in particular the old and infirm. In particular patients who would have used Ashburton & Buckfastleigh Community Hospital will be put into Totnes Community Hospital instead. This is farther from home, there is no public transport links, and therefore will only cost more money to non-emergency patient transport services. Beds in community hospitals mean General Hospitals are able to move recovering patients enabling them to treat more critical patients. Losing these beds will only serve to bed block General Hospitals, such as Torbay, leading to poorer service. When it comes to Medical treatment this can be the difference in providing outstanding care (saving lives), or being prevented from treating the sick or injured (resulting in preventable deaths and suffering).

There is mental health funding in Birmingham and Walsall that is meant to provide advocates to those that struggle and need assistance or prompting to be able to live independently with mental health day to day. This support helps people to get outside and live their lives by giving them confidence and support. I’ve tried to access this support and have been told there are no available advocates. Without this support many patients end up housebound. It’s like a mental health postcode lottery. I’m a mum and it really pains me to see my children missing out on making lovely memories during their summer holidays, because I can’t access the help I and many others suffering in silence need, to manage anxiety and depression, bipolar and many more mental illnesses. I'd say cuts to NHS mental health is wrong ... how are people meant to get better if theres no one there to reach out to in time of need... 😕 I feel strongly about this matter ... Call it personal experience ... Age , race , sex , rich or poor....... Mental illness can affect anyone ....

There are strong rumours that Forest of Dean bus routes could be seriously reduced or some routes axed in the autumn 2016. A public consultation took place in the summer but the results have not been made public. For many people, these buses are a lifeline: whether it's helping them get to work , or helping more vulnerable members of the community get out to community groups. The resulting cuts will affect the poorest and most vulnerable members of the community, isolating them even further with dire economic, educational, employment, and health implications. Please add your voice to ours.

There is more and more nurses shortage all across the UK and especially the NNS. It is mainly due to the fact that LESS number of people are attracted towards the job. And it is due to the fact that the salary for nurses in the NHS is so low that new people are not attracted towards the job. Moreover the existing nurses and trying to take alternative profession simply because of the fact that the stress that they take for the pay they receive is not proportionate. With just over £21000 as a starting salary in the NHS for a newly qualified nurse, it is difficult to attract more people into the progression and due to this low numbers of staff on ward patient care is getting compromised. I would like to promote this campaign as one of the step the improve the plight of our world class NHS.

It would be a functioning pub for bringing people together and also the car park provides a central public amenity in the village which has no other a suitable parking for visitors, village hall, walkers etc. Therefore we are asking for your support in 1) saving the pub and 2) save the car park as an amenity

Because young people are the next generation and it is likley that they will never be able to pick themselves up without early intervention from local councils and british goverment

We are encouraged daily to switch suppliers for a better deal. This would be so much easier if this method could be adopted.

Help us protect our Crisis Line in Bristol! Earlier this month, Bristol Mental Health (BMH) announced the proposed closure of the crisis line from the end of November 2016. Some concerned users of the crisis line have expressed anxiety over the potential changes, sharing that they worry they would "lose a valuable service" that has helped them 'throughout the last eighteen months or so', approximately how long the line has been operational. With at least one in four people experiencing a mental health issue in their lifetime, now is the time for increased and clear mental health support that is easily accessible for all. We feel that there needs to be more improved signposting, with clear and easily accessible information available for people wanting to use mental health services and seek support. We want to ensure that any changes to the crisis line are in the best interests of those currently accessing services, and those that may access Bristol’s mental health services in the the future. We will be meeting with BMH and Bristol CCG on 9th September to discuss the crisis line further, and will also announce a date for an open meeting to get wider views in the near future. In the meantime, please join us in ensuring proper scrutiny of the future of our Crisis Line and spread the word of this vital campaign by signing and sharing this petition to show you are with us when we meet with them. If you want to get in touch about this campaign, or share your experience of using the Crisis Line, then please drop BIMHN Secretary, Tom, an email at: [email protected] References 1.
