What the petition asks
DEPHER is a CIC charity that helps the elderly and disabled in the harsh winter months with free plumbing and heating repairs.
DEPHER has helped over 1400 elderly and disabled UK residents with the potential to help the UK as a whole but can't do so without the necessary help and funding.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
