• Save the Old Bodlondeb School Youth Centre from Demolition
    The Council are planning to demolishing this Historic community building. [1] Right now, the building is being used by various youth groups including Scouts and providing a vibrant local community hub. This historic building has been a school, a community centre, and seen generations of children use it and learn in it. CADW, the Welsh government body that conserve the heritage of Wales, are considering making the 122-year old Bodlondeb school a listed building. Over the years, numerous architects have been cautious to preserve the building as much as possible. An archeological report warns: “The impact of development would result in the loss of a heritage asset of at least local significance.” [2] We believe it would be a shame if the Council were to just demolish it. We, the undersigned, want to see future generations be given the same opportunities to use Bodlondeb school for community activities for all ages, from spinning classes to knitting.

  • PROTECT MIDDLEWICK RANGE MAKE IT A Nature Reserve
    Middlewick is situated in Colchester Essex which is the first recorded town in England. The Government want the area to be be sold off for housing and local people who use the area for recreational use want this area to be protected. The local people have seen lots of species that are on the protection list including trees in the area and want to encourage more species to flourish in this area. it has great potential as a nature reserve especially as parts of the area are already protected. Local people also feel that more housing would cause problems in so many ways including poor air quality more crime and mental health problems as well as noting the area does not have the infrastructure to cope with more housing. It is so important to protect this land so that animals have a safe haven, and we can find out and learn about our heritage culture and get a better understanding of our environment. So much could be done with this land including country walks, camping, cycling trails, conservation projects and so much more please dont let more concrete destroy this beautiful countryside.

  • Ban all public balloon releases
    The plastic waste in our oceans and open land is growing, this is killing off many wonderful species, farm animals and birds. It is also getting into the food chain and is toxic. "Biodegradable" balloons burst to look like jellyfish and take 6 months to rot away, but balloon manufacturers say "as fast as an oak leaf", so people assume they are fast rotting. Lastly, helium is a finite resource which should not be used for balloon releases.

  • Stop Bucks County Council ripping out bushes and trees in Princess Mary Gate!
    The residents of Princess Mary Gate have contributed over the years to the maintenance and growth of the planting around the development. Many of us are very angry at the decision to simply rip out many plants and trees and replace them with grassed areas.

  • Rossington fly problem.
    Rossington, Doncaster, has seen a massive increase in the number of flies, hundreds are entering homes on a daily basis. It is unhygienic and upsetting to residents who have put up with worsening conditions over the last 2 years. Businesses have been warned to improve their waste disposal and cleanliness but no lasting action has taken place and the issue has in fact worsened, leaving residents ill.

  • Introduce 'Pink Bobbies' (Armadilos) to cycle lanes in Oxford & Britian
    Protecting cyclist will encourage more people to take to 2 or 3 wheels; in turn, this will deliver better air quality, improve health and make our towns and cities safer for both cyclists and motorists. 'Pink Bobbies' (armadillos) are car friendly as they are designed to nudge oncoming vehicles without damaging tyres and rims, at the same time provide a safe haven for cyclists within dedicated cycle lanes. ‘Pink Bobbies’ are also made from recycled car tires, providing an environmentally sustainable solution to tire disposal.

  • Cheshire East's withdrawal of some supported bus services
    The saving of £1.6 million would be counterproductive as cutting bus services in Cheshire East will have undesirable consequences and cause distress and inconvenience to many residents. We believe that the following groups would be more adversely affected; the elderly, disabled and infirm, the young and people on low incomes. Getting to work, shops, schools, colleges, doctors, banks, social events and hospital appointments would be made more inaccessible. We also believe that trade in towns and town markets will be affected. The stopping of evening services will have a negative affect on restaurants and pubs and other social groups. We are concerned that the withdrawal of bus services will result in more cars on the road and significant reduction in air quality. Many of the towns and villages are growing in size and as a result we should be given improved services not declining ones.

  • Ditch Plastic Bottles at Wimbledon
    It is predicted that by 2050, there will be more plastic by weight in our oceans than fish. At the moment, the Wimbledon tournament is screened to hundreds of millions of viewers around the world - with images of tennis players and spectators, consuming and throwing bottle after bottle away. Discarded bottles are littered across the courts. Even players are speaking out calling for a ban on single-use plastic bottles at Wimbledon. And British number one - Johanna Konta- wants the All England Lawn Tennis Club to take action. Lord’s Cricket Ground and Glastonbury festival have announced they are both banning plastic bottles at future events.The All England Tennis Club should follow suit. Now is the time for them to take environmental responsibility by not supplying players and others with throwaway plastic bottles at Wimbledon.
