What the petition asks
There are many businesses that provide VITAL therapy for people with disabilities, physical or learning. They need financial support to keep going. They've lost income during COVID 19 & costs have substantially increased for those opening again.
There are many businesses that provide therapy & support that local authorities do not provide anymore. Local authorities use them as well as parents/carers paying privately to access these vital services.
These include Sensory Occupational therapy (for autism, SPD, Dyspraxia amongst others), speech therapy, art therapy (children & adults with autism, dyspraxia, SPD, learning disabilities)
Where I live we've lost the only place that provided these services. Others are struggling too!
