What the petition asks
Show how much the UK truly appreciates the colossal effort to raise a staggering sum, all in the name of love for others by a genuine loyal citizen of the realm.
This would not only recognise the immense achievement of a determined and selfless individual, but bring a sense of pride back to the country in a time of unprecedented hardship and sacrifice, an act that will be remembered and talked about in history and schools all over the globe, as an example of true heroism.
Why it was rejected
It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.
We can't accept your petition because it asks for someone to be nominated for an honour.
Members of the public can nominate people for honours directly. You can find out how to nominate someone for an honour here:
