Require local authorities to issue parking permits to health and care workers

Closed 192 signatures

What the petition asks

Change laws to require local authorities to give carers and healthcare professionals parking permits so we can more easily care for vulnerable people in their own homes. Our vulnerable people still need care.
Carers and healthcare professionals help vulnerable people in their own homes. It's important for us to be there for their varying care needs or treatment but parking difficulties can make this vital role difficult at times. A parking permit would help alleviate this issue.
