HFH was one of the first nurseries to open in East/West Molesey. Dozens of children have benefited from the fantastic work and commitment of Emma and her team. They have provided fantastic loving care from the moment they opened nearly four years ago. They have only just found out that Rushmon Homes plan to install one of the anonymous corporate nursery companies in their place in the planned new nursery facilities. They were given no prior notice either by Rushmon or Molesey Football Club. It's madness to close a brilliantly successful local business, that has brought peace of mind to so many families in the Molesey area, and replace it with an alternative that undoubtedly has profits as it's main goal. Anyone with an ounce of sense can see that it would make the best sense to allow Emma to continue to build on the fantastic work she and her team have already accomplished in our local community.

The community of Falmouth, Cornwall, is facing a very real health issue and NEEDS YOUR HELP! As of March 20th 2015 GLYPHOSATE, the active ingredient in RoundUp weedkiller, was re-classified as “probably causes CANCER” by the WHO (the World Health Organisation). Most of the community are unaware this weed killer is used in ALL parks and play parks in Falmouth; including Kimberley Park, The Bowling Green Play Park, The Princess Pavillion and The Dracaena Centre. GLYPHOSATE stays active in soil for up to 6 months. This is scientifically proven; Neutralization upon contact is a marketing myth. Children and dogs may still come into direct contact with the chemical (and may ingest it) when playing in areas, which were sprayed weeks or even months previous. Babies may crawl and dogs may sniff where GLYPHOSATE is used The areas are UNMARKED and NOT cordoned off; there are no warning signs! This chemical is also scientifically linked to Autism and Parkinsons; though the more common effects include Asthma, Eczema and Allergies. Please see links below for further details if required. It's imperative to the health and future of the community of Falmouth, Cornwall, that WE help ban this unnecessary chemical, from one public park at a time. This isn’t political; it’s just practical. If you're happy to have dandelions instead of probably CANCER, please sign this petition and share it with your friends. Thank you. http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/iarcnews/pdf/MonographVolume112.pdf http://www.epa.gov/safewater/pdfs/factsheets/soc/tech/glyphosa.pdf http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/11487118/Weedkiller-alert-over-cancer-link.html http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2015/mar/21/roundup-cancer-who-glyphosate- http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/health-news/roundup-weed-killer-can-probably-cause-cancer-warns-who-10124812.html http://www.i-sis.org.uk/Why_Glyphosate_Should_be_Banned.php http://people.csail.mit.edu/seneff/glyphosate/Seneff_AutismOne_2014.pdf http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2315057/Is-worlds-popular-weed-killer-causing-Parkinsons-New-study-shows-Roundup-herbicide-linked-cancer-infertility.html http://www.foe.co.uk/sites/default/files/downloads/impacts_glyphosate.pdf

Our city is surrounded by beautiful countryside yet the quality of the environment is seriously compromised by the level of litter that is allowed to build up on our roads. Enough is enough.

The 505 bus service is under threat on the grounds of running at a loss and being underused. Public transport is a public service - financial viability shouldn't be a consideration. Epping Forests' bus services are already few on the ground but are vital for the many residents who don't drive, the elderly, disabled people, students and the low waged/unwaged. We need more services, not fewer. The 505 service is currently operated by Arriva and Network Harlow. Arriva made £373 million profit in 2013. If they are unwilling to continue providing the service Essex County Council needs to find an alternative company to run the route, with subsidies if necessary, or set up a not-for-profit operator to take it over. The Epping Forest Guardian covered the situation here: http://www.eppingforestguardian.co.uk/news/waltham_forest/11858552.Decision_to_scrap__life_line__bus_service_criticised/

The Sri Lankan police has a long history of human rights abuses and vicious attacks. Amnesty International’s latest annual report into Sri Lanka alleged that unlawful detentions and torture by security forces were carried out routinely. Since 2007, the Scottish Police College has trained thousands of Sri Lankan officers - including some senior commanders. But training has failed to protect human rights in Sri Lanka. Siobhan Reardon, Amnesty International's programme director in Scotland, said: “Human rights campaigners and family members of people subjected to enforced disappearance were threatened and arrested, and fatal attacks on religious minorities went unpunished.” Also a UN report commissioned by secretary general Ban Ki-Moon found that as many as 40,000 Tamil civilians may have been killed in the last months of the civil war in May 2009, mostly through indiscriminate shelling by Sri Lankan security forces. The police training reform project is funded by the Foreign Office (FCO), was supposed to embed "international standards in police training." But a recent FCO report found instances of torture, deaths in police custody, police abductions and instances of suspects shot and killed as they attempted to flee. The current contract will end on 31 March 2015, but it could be renewed. Police Scotland should not enable human rights abuses in Sri Lanka. Please listen to the Scottish public, Tamil community and human rights campaigners. Please sign this petition and stop Police Scotland enabling human rights abuses in Sri Lanka. Tamil Solidarity and a number of diaspora campaigners support this petition.

The sick and disabled people applying for PIP fill in a very long application form, which often repeats itself and so the individual(s) applying must repeat the answers. Even with getting professional help filling in these forms, does not guarantee, a fair and balanced end result. Many applicants are requested to have a one to one assessment and the results of these assessments seem to be down graded against the applicant

There are currently 115,000 people living with the condition in the UK. Crohn's disease can affect people of all ages, including children. However, most cases first develop between the ages of 16 and 30. The number of teenagers with Crohn’s disease has jumped more than 300 per cent in the last 10 years because of junk food and the overuse of antibiotics. According to figures from the Health and Social Care Information Centre, some 4,937 16 to 29-year-olds were admitted for treatment in England between 2003 and 2004, but last year the figure rose to 19,405. People with Crohn's disease can experience periods of severe symptoms followed by periods of remission that can last for weeks or years. The symptoms of Crohn's disease depend on where the disease occurs in the bowel and its severity. In general symptoms can include: Chronic diarrhoea, often bloody and containing mucus or pus Weight loss Fever, abdominal pain and tenderness Feeling of a mass or fullness in the abdomen Rectal bleeding This research is based on the same approach as the cure found for smallpox. Edward Jenner introduced a new term to the language when he ‘vaccinated’ (Latin vacca, cow) a boy in 1796 with matter taken from a cowpox lesion on a milkmaid’s hand. Jenner’s technique, in which he introduced a weaker viral type into the human body, was much less risky than the hitherto inoculations of Variola major. A set of similar circumstances has again led the medical profession to discover an immune system in cows and the research and trials in America and Israel are based on this finding.

The reason removing the three feathers is important is because it's traced back to Edward the Black Prince; oldest son and heir to Edward III of England and therefore no connection to the native land. Having the feathers is a statement of English oppression and ownership - I find it offensive that it's being used instead of daffodils, leeks, the Red dragon or the Saint David's cross. Y rheswm mae'n bwysig cael gwared o'r tair pluen yw oherwydd ei fod yn olrhain yn ôl i Edward y Tywysog Du ; mab hynaf ac aer i Edward y trydydd o Loegr ac felly tydi o ddim yn cysylltu efo'r wlad enedigol . Mae cael y tair pluen yn ddatganiad o ormes a pherchnogaeth Saeson - Dwi'n gweld hi'n sarhaus i ei ddefnyddio yn lle gennin Pedr, cennin, y ddraig Goch neu y groes Dewi Sant .

Fracking causes devastating effects, affecting every sector of public life, from health to agriculture, to tourism and the environment. Places such as the USA, or Australia where Fracking has already happened have seen a complete degradation of normal life; taking a shower brings your whole body out in a painful red rash, you can light your water on fire, you can't sleep for the noise of the machines and worse, the division of communities due to the manipulation of the Fracking companies. The effects of Fracking are truly endless, with long term effects still being uncovered. We want a ban on Fracking because we love our families, our friends and where we live. Many people have become seriously ill when Fracking companies have started drilling near them. There are many stories of heartache, from someone's wife who has cancer to a mother's young son with severe asthma. Under no circumstances is it acceptable to put communities through the ordeal of Fracking for the sole reason of extracting fossil fuel from the ground. With the effects of the Climate Change becoming worse, this is not the time to invest in Fossil Fuels. If we do not change our habits the repercussions of Climate Change will affect every single person on this earth. We should therefore be investing in renewable energy, not in polluting practises such as Fracking. By signing this petition we make it the duty of our politicians to ensure that Climate change is curbed and Fracking never happens in Northern Ireland.

Both my sons went to Castle Nursery School a few years ago and I can't tell you how amazing this nursery is, they gave my boys the very best start to their school lives and Ofsted rate them as 'outstanding' too. Our children deserve the best as they only get one chance. Every parent should have the choice to send their children to and outstanding provider if they wish. But not only this Castle Nursery is also in the Arboretum Ward which is the most disadvantaged area in Derby and currently does not have enough childcare places for the children living in the ward. Derby City Council should be making residents aware that they can access this oustanding nursery not taking it away just because families don't know about the nursery or don't know they are entitled to 15hrs free childcare. Please help me make Derby City Council accountable for their decisions and make it known that we are not going to let them take away yet another invaluable provision just because they have mismanaged their budget. Thank you

It is important to remove the profit motive from all sexual practices so that relationships between people become loving, fun and connecting unions free from any monetary value. Lets end the commoditisation of women and sexual practices in our culture so that we may evolve as a species.Tacit or active acceptance in our culture denigrates all human beings and we can do better than that. We must strive for better. I wrote to my local MP Theresa May last May about this, chased her secretary and have heard nothing. Traditional political avenues therefore may not be the initial way forward and only a change to the law will stop this latest and fast growing addiction from become incorporated into British culture the way that drinking has become the national sport. I would postulate that the stakes are much higher in this case because everyone suffers, men, women, families, communities and society. Looking back 200 years from now what sort of cultural legacy do we want to pass on? It is the thin end of the wedge for all related sex work and has surreptitiously become part of the fabric. Its insidious nature belies a much bigger problem. Most recently I had the charge of being 'old-fashioned' levelled at me when I suggested that these places were not a suitable or harmless way for young men having a little fun on a Friday or attending a stag bash. If by trying to have a better sense of decorum I start using my mothers favourite put down (a word that has seemingly disappeared from our vernacular) vulgar; plus foster a new wave of respect between the sexes then old-fashioned is a lovely compliment and a banner I will proudly wear.
