  • Ban the Ivory Trade
    With the General Election coming up, Theresa May and the Conservative Party have stated in their latest (2017) manifesto that they will give a "general pledge" to "work with international organisations to protect endangered species and the marine environment." We need more than this to protect the vulnerable creatures, this country's leaders need to live up to our reputation of being a nation of animal lovers and put a total ban on the ivory trade and not bow down to pressure from their colleagues in the party like Lady Victoria Borwich who is the President of The British Antiques Dealers’ Association, and the Conservative MP for Kensington.

  • Blue Badges 4 Dementia
    Currently in England,Scotland and Northern Ireland to apply for a Blue Badge you have to have a walking difficulty or be registered blind unlike Wales.The lack of such an entitlement in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland is blatantly discriminatory and contravenes Article 20 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities UNCRPD, the right to personal mobility. The current situation exposes people with a cognitive impairment and their carers to real risks, excludes them from many activities, and threatens progress on the Government’s commitment to dementia friendly communities. A carer would have to let a person living with dementia get out of the car while they park and risk them becoming distracted and wandering away before they get out of the car and getting lost, this happened in a local supermarket car park and the person living with dementia was missing for 2 hours and needed a police search to find them

  • Stop the taxation on people with dementia
    Dementia is the single biggest killer for people over 60, taxing people with this horrible disease is absurd. This condition is futile and people should not be punished for a condition they are unable to control.

  • Neha Chaudhry's Renewal of Visa application

But a technical error has left her in the situation of leaving the UK within 14 days or file an apoeal whuch does not automatically allow her ro file the correct version of this document.- an appointment's report detailing her status as a director of the company she founded. Unless the Home Office realises this was an unintentional mistake, we will lose the wonderful and frankly life-changing piece of equipment that will turn thousands, if not millions of Parkinson's sufferers. Many more younger sufferers are being diagnosed (http://www.parkinson.org/understanding-parkinsons/what-is-parkinsons/young-onset-parkinsons) each year. Andy Sinclair, director of Sysemia has said of Miss Chaudry " she has invented something that is socially, economically and morally a great thing to do ( source I Weekend) Please loby the Home Office to overturn this decision!!!
