What the petition asks
As of 1st April 2022 the government have banned the use of Red Diesel except for agricultural use. This means it can no longer be used for in Charity Tractor runs & Ploughing matches, and charities could miss out a lot of money.
The charities that benefit from these Tractor Runs are extremely grateful for any money raised but if red diesel cannot be used it may not be financially viable to hold these events, and charities could lose out.
