What the petition asks
Lichfield is a beautiful cathedral city, we have lots of new housing estates being built but Lichfield District council and Freedom Leisure are closing the only public swimming pool and leisure centre in the area.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
