These young people have invested in their own skill development, and will carry the loans for some years to come. They already face the gruelling years of being junior doctors in the NHS. Now they are showing that strong sense of duty for which our Health Service has been famous. We need to show them that we value their work and will not let the UK Government continue to abuse and undermine both the medical profession and our NHS.

Many people admit to not being able to respond to an accident because of a lack of first aid. Many accidents could have had better outcomes if people knew first aid so if primary schools had better education on the matter less problems would occur.

They are all doing an exceptional.job at a very difficult.time, they should.not need to pay to get to work or to park at work

This is important so we can carry out our duties as key workers and not have to worry about getting our children looked after by granparents or having to stay home to look after our family which of course is going to come first. There are not many couples that work in the same sector which you are now expecting. For keyworkers to be able to carry on working this needs to change to one parent as a keyworker Unless the other is out of work.

The BBC are going to produce daily exercise programs for older people in response to the covid-19 crisis. Mr Motivator is the man to do this.

Boris Johnson this week issued a ' 'request' to bars, cafés, clubs, cinemas, theatres and music venues and all entertainment businesses and schools that they close in view of the Corona Virus emergency. However shopping centres, and non essential shops are remaining open. Putting both retail workers and the public at risk of contracting the virus. These are also busy public spaces which are hard to maintain social distance .

Many elderly and disabled/ chronically ill people have been relying on home deliveries for their own everyday nutritional and personal hygiene needs. Due to widespread panic buying, it has become increasingly difficult to secure a delivery slot within a reasonable time frame, so that many people in these vulnerable groups are currently facing not only the prospect of loneliness over the coming weeks and months, but the very real possibility of running out of basic groceries and over-the-counter medical supplies. Please sign this petition and help to ensure that the most vulnerable members of our society don’t get overlooked during this pandemic. 🙏🏻

If people are NOT being tested for CV, how on earth will anyone know if they have had this infection & they have built up a resistance to this deadly virus. The government keeps saying stay at home, ,2 weeks for some, for up to 4 months for the elderly. If people knew that they had already been infected and not just had a dose of flu, they could return to work. Schools etc.

Cumbernauld in the largest and most populous town in North Lanarkshire and the 10th largest town in Scotland and has no hospital and no out of hours service and no transport links to enable the residents of Cumbernauld to access healthcare out with the town. A local business man has offered a piece of land for FREE to have the hospital built in Cumbernauld and yet Cumbernauld has been rejected as a possible site for the new hospital. Why? Because apparently it will detract from a nearby hospital in a different region ( Forth Valley Royal Hospital, Larbert ) some 10 miles away. A hospital that the residents of Cumbernauld are actively discouraged from using. Instead NHS North Lanarkshire is looking at Gartcosh as a potential site for the new hospital. Gartcosh being just 8 miles from Glasgow Royal Infirmary. Since the majority of patients will be from Cumbernauld i think it’s only right that the hospital be built in Cumbernauld.

This is important as recently, business rates are sinking small businesses with these extortionate costs. In particular two businesses in two separate councils that serve the whole community for their mental and physical well-being. Small Businesses in the health and fitness realm that can help with issues such as anxiety / stress / IBS to name a few. Sadly, these businesses look to take the pressure off the NHS but who have no real chance of growing + staying to help the community. Support local as we are told, however we need the government to lead on this message and help small businesses thrive.

Fitness improves the overall wellbeing in our teenagers, both mentally and physically, at a time when they need it most. Being a teenager isn’t easy and there are very few adults who would wish to return this age. They are not all rascals, which our press would have us believe. The rascals are in fact the minority. Our community and the facilities within should be encouraging health and fitness. My daughter has been invited to help start a volleyball team at school. She is also a dancer, who aims to teach professionally. She wanted to improve her fitness and so came lane swimming with me. She was asked to leave by the facilities assistant manager due to being “underage”. Not based on ability just on age. She has now joined a gym, who took her money for a membership but when she arrived after school she was told she couldn’t visit without an accompanying adult. We have all read the reports of an increasing number of teenagers suffering from mental health issues, particularly depression, and teenagers addicted to computer games. Exercise helps regulate hormones, improves moodswings, and reduces the risk of mental health issues. Teenagers who have the interest and want to exercise should be encouraged to do so. It keeps them away from the risks and temptations that are ever present on the streets and also steers them away from the bombardment of social media. Surely these facilities should have a responsibility to promote and encourage exercise in our youth. It would just need the simple solution and low cost of providing supervision for 2 or 3 hours after school hours. Please give your support to help encourage these facilities to promote the health and wellbeing, that they market themselves on, to our youth. Health & wellbeing does not just apply to adults.

As a country, we have high standards, in particular to the safety of food products and safety standards, and we should not lower our standards simply to secure a trade deal. This is a backward step and we firmly believe that if a country wishes to trade with us they should raise their standards to meet ours. This ensures that the British public can still have faith in the quality and hygiene standards of the food they eat and the products they buy here in the UK.
