Stop the cuts to Lancasterian sensory support service

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

I'm a mum of a child with sensory impairment and the government want to to cut the funding by £410,000. This means less support for our children and the closing of two sensory support schools. We need these services to help our children get the specialist support they require to develop. Please sign

Why it was rejected

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

This seems to be the responsibility of Manchester City Council.
