STOP NEEDLE REHABILITATION CENTRE BEING PLACED IN CANNOCK TOWN CENTRE

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

Drug addicts in Cannock and the surrounding towns could soon exchange their needles at the old Post Office building on Church Street.

RESIDENTS OF CANNOCK DONT WANT THIS CENTRE IN OUR TOWN CENTRE WHERE WE SHOP WITH OUR CHILDREN.
WE ARE ALL FOR HELPING ADDICTS BUT NOT WHERE WE SHOP.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
