Make Menston Drive safe for residentsIt's a main, traffic free route to and from schools, nurseries, shops, health and other vital services. Without lighting and a decent road surface it is not safe or fit for purpose.164 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Eleanor Thomson

Roller Skate Space for Victoria Park, LeicesterThe popularity of roller skating over the past year has grown immensely due to COVID-19. As a result, there has been a shortage of roller skates internationally with skate retailers reporting an 800% increase in sales since the start of the first lockdown over a year ago. There are now hundreds of skaters within Leicester city, many of which skate in Victoria park. For many of us, it has been our main source of exercise throughout the pandemic and has provided a sense of community to all ages and backgrounds where we can teach, learn and bond with one another. It has encouraged friends and families to come together, socially distanced, and actively take part in a sport that is as effective as running. At the moment, we are having to locate ourselves on public pathways, car parks and tennis courts. Anywhere that is flat and smooth enough to skate on, it is guaranteed a skater will know about it. Unfortunately, with this we are often told to move on resulting in the discouragement of this wonderful sport. I can say with 100% confidence that there are no safe skate spaces for roller skaters to practice in Leicester and we are forced to use whatever grounds are deemed suitable. Rough, uneven grounds result in more accidents and injuries. By developing a dedicated safe skate space/outdoor rink, roller skaters will no longer be forced to skate in places that are illegal/where we shouldn’t be or be in the way of other people’s activities. An alternative would be scheduled time for roller skaters to use the tennis courts in Victoria park. With the growing numbers of roller skaters and minimal flat smooth ground in Leicester, a safe legal skate space/outdoor roller rink is needed, for children and adults alike.396 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Lara Beswick

Richard Drax MP: Please Help us Save Our Paramedic Car!Swanage is at the end of the Isle of Purbeck peninsula and is a popular holiday destination. With the planned loss of A&E and Maternity from Poole, Swanage will be approaching 30 miles from Bournemouth or Dorset County, with much of the journey on busy single track roads. A freedom of information act response from the Ambulance Trust shows that in 2019 there were 996 call outs of a paramedic car to BH19 postcodes - that's just Swanage, Langton, Worth + Studland. Over half of these call outs were category 1-3 emergencies, the most serious, and there were more than 400 call outs each year where there was risk to life. Data for call outs to BH20 postcodes in 2019 - Corfe, Wareham and wider Purbeck - has been requested, but not yet received.657 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Laura Rowan

Reinstate the Stockport Metroshuttle bus• The Metroshuttle bus, until its withdrawal in April 2019, provided high frequency bus access 7 days a week to much of the town centre including the bus and train stations, market and Central Library. It was of great value to elderly and disabled passengers. • Stockport Council has declared a Climate Emergency. It and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority have obligations in respect of carbon emissions reduction and air pollution reduction. The Metroshuttle helps in meeting these objectives as well as reducing traffic congestion. This was a highly valued service which should be built upon and not scrapped.

🆘STOP OUR NEIGHBOURHOOD BECOMING A DUMP!We the undersigned are outraged and appalled by the increasing incidence of fly tipping in the area which has become a major problem. What were once quiet suburban roads, parks and beauty spots are now hotspots for dumping of all manner of illegal waste. Not only is this an eyesore and extremely hazardous, but living amongst these conditions is detrimental to our physical and mental well-being, furthermore it serves to de-value the neighbourhood and we demand to put a stop to it now! If you share our concern or have anything further to add regarding this disgusting, anti social activity, then please sign the petition and make your voice heard. Add your photos, comments and suggestions so that collectively we can bring about a change:434 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Diana Hudson

Save Woodside HallsWoodside Halls provide valuable space for community groups to meet, be it Yoga, Kung Fu, dance, Capoeira, meetings, AA, tango, creative art therapy.... the list goes on. All of these activities rely on cheap hall hire. As we come out of the pandemic, mental and physical health support is proving to be vital, and being able to attend classes could mean a lifeline to many. In addition, Woodside Halls are used as rehearsal spaces for many groups and are vital to the recovery of Glasgow's Cultural scene.128 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Penny Chivas

Save our Services in GlasgowGlasgow City Council and Glasgow Life cannot be allowed to ravage our city’s heritage. These services are not a luxury, they are at the heart of any cohesive community.

Glasgow says No. We will fight these cuts. OUR CULTURE! OUR HERITAGE! OUR SERVICES! OUR FUTURE! Below is a list of public assets that are vulnerable to closure. These services belong to the People of Glasgow and in a post-Covid world their continued existence will be crucial to improving the quality of life of the city's population.

People with disabilities, including wheelchair users, mobility scooter users, those who need to use other walking aids are being continually discriminated against by being denied access to our town and amenities. There are, Insufficient dropped curbs Poorly maintained dropped curbs Poorly maintained pavements Appalling signage Lifts not working No access to the beach Insufficient crossings on main roads Poor access to many shops and cafes Too few disabled parking bays KCC need to take urgent action to allow us full access and to respect our human rights as people with a disability.893 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Joe Shaw

Save West Kilbride LibraryOur very attractive Library Building overlooks the village of West Kilbride and has stunning views across to the hills. Our Library is one of the most well used in North Ayrshire and has the potential to increase its service by developing links with other creative and educational projects. The IT suite was in constant use. Attendance at a public consultation drew one of the largest oppositions in the Local Authority. This is one of the most unpopular moves suggested by the Council and compares with their disastrous decision to close public toilets and swing parks - both of which are now viewed by communities as a complete mistake.1,060 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Kay Hall
