Successful Campaigns

UPDATE: 23/09/16 We Won! At long last we have got another wellbeing space but it will need a lot of work to make it as good as the one we lost.

14/07/14 Great news! The government have scrapped their plans to privatise the Land Registry. What's more, 38 Degrees members' campaigning alongside high street solicitors, unions and MPs had a major impact on this outcome. So well done to everyone involved, we've saved another of our public services from privatisation! Hurrah!

Update: NHS bosses have announced our centre will stay open for the "foreseeable future" after this petition, taking to the streets, and the media got involved. Read more here: http://bit.ly/1TBPkAA

Thanks to your support we were able to hand in a petition with over 26,000 signatures urging the Government to back small cider producers. On 8th July 2015, the Government responded in its Budget. The Chancellor has announced that the Government will retain the current duty exemption for small cider producers. This is excellent news for real cider drinkers and small producers alike. CAMRA is delighted with the Government’s commitment and will now be working hard to ensure that they can keep the promise with a legal exemption in the EU Directive. Thank you for making this a campaign win!

We won! David Cameron did not repeal the hunting act during his time as a Prime Minister..

The electrification of the Midland Mainline has been resumed!

Update 29/05/15: We won! The Community Trust's bid to build a new library on the existing site was yesterday approved by the council. Thanks so much for your enthusiastic support which helped achieve this great result. Read more here: http://38d.gs/1PSuuAt

Update 24/3/15: Today we can announce that Achievement Bute has been saved! Argyll and Bute Council and Achievement Bute have now reached a funding agreement which will support Achievement Bute in developing a sustainable service in the future to support children with special needs, and their families, on Bute.

As you'll see from the last update, the County Council accidentally left a PDF of the contract on their website which could be unredacted if converted to a word processing file. This got out into the public domain and is still (as far as I know) viewable online, although the council have of course replaced it on their site. So an accidental win!
