Save Salisbury City Children’s Centre from closing

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Salisbury City Children’s centre on St Edmunds Church Street SP1 1EF may have to close. This is a vital service providing health visitor clinics, breastfeeding support and even a sensory room. Please sign this petition to show your support.

Why it was rejected

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

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is a decision for your local council.

You could raise your issue with a local councillor who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them:

We could accept a petition about something the UK Parliament and Government are responsible for. For example, we could accept a new petition asking the UK Parliament and Government to provide additional funding to councils to prevent the closure of children's centres, if that's something you'd like to happen.
