Schools are back and now is a good time to step up our campaign and save our School Crossing Patrols from being lost. Helen Toft this week launched an excellent e-petition to urge the Government to intervene with local authorities trying to cut School Crossing Patrols. If we manage to get 100,000 signatures, this issue can be debated in Parliament, so once you have signed it (which you can do here) pass it on to your friends and family!
Parents and teachers have gathered, as is the Tooting spirit, to organise a fantastic campaign to save this service from being cut. They have highlighted that the costs of children having a designated person to help them cross the road safely are minimal and that the savings simply would not be worth putting children at risk. I am very proud to be part of this campaign and joined activists recently to demonstrate the local opposition to the proposed cuts. |
