Save the school crossing patrols in Bristol.

Don't cut school crossing patrols.

Why is this important?

Bristol City Council are thinking about cutting 80 school crossing patrols across Bristol.

Worse still, it could mean children all over Bristol will be in danger when they walk to school.

Bristol's lollipop men and women get up first thing in the morning to go out in the freezing conditions and help and protect Bristol's children. They do a vital job for our city and this must continue.

The council are currently running a consultation on this so we have a real chance to tell them how much school patrols matter to us.

Dear supporters, we have until the 5th of January to convince the Council to protect our children by keeping the Lollipop people.

Here is a link to the consultation to make your feelings known

You don't need to answer all of the questions to the consultation, you only have to answer the 'About you' section and the 'Transport' section where you can explain why you think school crossings should not be cut.
The council will find it hard to ignore hundreds of responses asking for school crossing patrols to continue to get funding, so the consultation responses could tip the balance and ensure the cuts don't go ahead.

We must not allow the Council to these cuts.
Thank you all
