Suicide Prevention QE2 (Dartford) Bridge. Signage, Helplines, Higher Sides.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Please sign this petition to help prevent suicides on the Dartford bridge. My aim is to get signage erected with helplines such as the Samaritan's and to higher the sides of the bridge or make it unable to climb. Help save a life and raise awareness of suicide.
Many people have jumped off this bridge or have gone to the bridge with the intention of jumping. The bridge shuts every time and rightly so but if we can prevent this all together then why don't we!
