• Bring back the nit nurses
    While most parents regularly check their children for head lice some do not. The children of those parents continuously spread head lice through the schools, causing discomfort, distress and financial burdens on every parent with a child of school age. In the last four weeks we have had to treat our son for head lice four times and that is not an uncommon situation. Each time my son has been very distressed about it and despite us assuring him that it is not his fault he still says it makes him feel dirty. While I know that head lice treatment can be provided on the NHS for those parents who are unable to afford it this is not always freely given and is only provided for the child of school age. The problem with this is that the infection will usually be spread throughout the family thus only treating the child will not solve the problem. The nit nurses provided a bottle of treatment to use on the entire family. For those parents who simply do not check their children, whether out of ignorance or laziness, the nit nurse is a good tool for encouraging them to do so.

  • Help ban the cruelty of Bull Fighting no animal should suffer like this
    There is absolutely no need for animals of any description to be killed so cruelly for plain and simply entertainment of crowds, there is nothing honourable in the way these Matadors dispatch the poor beasts it is plain and simply cruelty, time people were educated to the fact that it is wrong to treat animals in such a manner, at least at the slaughterhouse they are dispatched quickly.

  • Don't delay the new Ysgol Pendref School
    Ysgol Heulfre merged with neighbouring Ysgol Gwaenynog to form Ysgol Pendref in 2012 and we were promised a new building by 2019, with feasibility works beginning in 2014. Denbighshire County Council have now back tracked on their promises, saying the costs are too high and that the school must wait for the next round of schools funding. This is despite the dates being a condition to the merger. It now looks likely that the new school will not be ready until 2024 if the Council gets it's way. This will have a major impact on our childrens education and ultimatley their futures. With more homes due to be built in the area, class sizes growing and cuts to schools budgets this delay cannot be allowed to happen and the Council must be held to account for their promises. The old site is not fit for purpose in any way. As a parent, I cannot stand by and do nothing. We all need to stand together and fight for our children and their futures before it's too late. Please visit the link below for more information but please don't forget to sign before you leave. http://m.denbighshirefreepress.co.uk/mobile/mnews/172401/new-ysgol-pendref-building-in-denbigh-could-be-put-back-to-2024.aspx

  • BETTER LOCATION FOR STIRLING GRADUATION 2017/18
    The University of Stirling should take the opportunity of its 50th anniversary to allow its students to graduate from somewhere far more interesting than a sports centre tennis hall. It is, frankly, disrespectful to its graduands to do so. Stirling Castle has a main hall and a church that could accommodate - if not as many - an acceptable number of attendees. Arrangements could easily be made to allow for more guests to attend the ceremony. Furthermore, as such an iconic part of Stirling, how better to integrate the university with its surrounding city than this? Dunblane Cathedral is a far larger location, which would be perfectly suited for this occasion. However, it is obviously a religious setting and slightly removed from the campus. Practicality deems it a better place for size, but there are problems that may be a hindrance.

  • Subsidise the cost of Adobe packages for students
    We want involvement from you- the students across UAL, as we know we could all do with fewer bills to pay. Students living in London already face considerable costs and increasing financial burdens...other institutions in London offer this to their students, and as an Arts university, Adobe is vital.. Whilst providing access within the university, this is always crowded and over subscribed, particularly with approaching deadlines. This adds excessive pressure on students and we feel the university should acknowledge this and lessen it. Find us here, https://m.facebook.com/Free-Adobe-For-UAL-Students-243334649478249/
