Fund mental health instead of Brexit advertsThere are people whose lives are suffering because they are not getting the provision they need, even though there are enough professionals that could be employed to carry out this work and also to make medications more affordable and more available. It is unethical to spend £100 million of the public's money on advertising something that is unquestionably controversial.23 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Elliot Lord

Save Group B Strep BabiesMy eldest daughter ( now 10), was born with this. She was very poorly and we were told that she may not survive. She was in the Neonatal unit for a week in Birmingham Women's Hospital. We later found out she also had pneumonia and pneumothorax. She was severely unwell. Most babies born with this who survive are deaf and have learning difficulties. Abby was a lucky one. The only way she has been affected is with a weakened immune system. THE SCARY THING IS WOMEN DO NOT KNOW THEY CARRY THIS DEADLY BACTERIA UNTIL THEIR BABIES ARE BORN AND ALL TOO OFTEN IT IS TOO LATE148 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Rhianon Lavender

Save Strone FarmThis landmark farm bears the name of the local housing estate the Strone and the farm has a wonderful history and has had many owners from Gabriel Dunlop to R Gardiner and the Bowes stretching almost 200 or more years back into history where adjacent was the Auchmountain Glen a Victorian garden which is now being restored. This is our heritage and the last few years have seen Greenock communities gentrified including schools and historic buildings. This is on my doorstep and I worked alongside Johnstone ( Last Farm Owner ) when I started the campaign to save the Auchmountain Glen and if I had my dream fullfilled The auchmountain Glen project could maybe have purchased this farm if it where not for red tape.291 of 300 SignaturesCreated by James Kearnie Beaton

Save St Stanislaus Dulverton and its Youth CentreSt Stanislaus RC Church, Dulverton and its adjoining 'Residential Centre', a Hostel, share the same site, with narrow access and restricted parking. One property is not usable without the other. The Hostel needs some expenditure on the exterior for which the Diocese is unwilling to pay. According to professional estimates obtained by the Parish, the cost is no more than £50K, which, given the chance, the Parish and Diocese could source between them. Most groups staying at the Centre are from schools, colleges, universities and youth organisations who come for canoeing and kayaking on the rivers Exe and Barle, rowing on Wimbleball Lake or cycling and hiking on Exmoor. Many groups had already expressed an interest in booking for 2020 before closure was suddenly announced by the Diocese in June 2019. The Hostel is in a prime location in the National Park and conveniently situated in a town with shops and services. Loss of the Hostel will bring further significant loss to local businesses, to young people and to community life in Dulverton and the surrounding area which have already been hard hit by other recent closures. Loss of the Hostel will also inevitably mean closure of the adjoining Church of St Stanislaus which is a spiritual beacon not only for local parishioners, but also for town people of all faiths or none, who drop in for moments of quiet contemplation, for tourists, family and friends from across the world visiting Exmoor. Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, former President of France, used to worship there when staying with friends locally. It is a little gem of a church with features designed by Sir Albert Richardson and adorned with glorious stained glass and interesting statues including St George and the Dragon by Septimus Waugh and a fine crucifix by Eric Gill.

OverchargingAt a time when wages are not keeping up with rising prices, many are struggling to survive financially each month, food, fuel and other essentials are costing more each week(whatever politicians tell us -I bet not many of them do the food shopping!!) to have this extra money in our pockets and not in the grasping electricity company coffers is essential. Lets raise the issue loudly to them to clean up their act.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by helen taubman

Stop anonymously funded organisations being given air-timeMany so-called 'independent' organisations are funded by companies or individuals with their own specific financial, social or political agendas, and exist largely to promulgate those opinions. Giving air-time to them legitimises sometimes extreme or scientifically unsound views, and has no place in a true democracy.16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Colin Harrison

Speed limit in St Mary Cray High StreetI believe that St Mary Cray High Street poses a danger to pedestrians as well as wild life in the river walk which runs along it. The sleeping police man are not slowing down traffic and measures have to be taken to ensure safety of people using the street. The High street has a primary school, three nurseries, a Park with a playground which means a high number of parents with young children, often toddlers and prams walk along the pavement. This is a dangerous undertaking as the pavement is very narrow in places and drivers speed past pedestrians way above the 20 mile speed limit. I asked one of the bus drivers whether he was aware of this speed limit and he was not. There is a small traffic sign as one turns into the High Street but it is in the round about and barely visible. The traffic on the road has tripled recently as a large number of new houses and flats have been built along the street. Also, drivers use it as a rat run to avoid traffic lights on the main road (A224). When it rains, speeding cars splash dirty water across the pavements with pedestrians having to jump out of the way. Often, rather than slowing down to let oncoming buses pass, drivers go onto the pavement. In short, walking along the High Street pedestrians often endanger their children’s safety.59 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Magdalena Williams
