Petition · past parliament

all places of rest, cemeteries and crematoriums, secured with cameras

Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the government to provide relevant funding so that all local authorities can provide relevant security in cemeteries and crematorium.
These places are constantly being disrespected. Dog walkers allow their dogs to foul on loved ones graves, items are stolen or destroyed and frequently local sporting clubs fans are parking on the grass where beloved family and friends lie
