Petition
Keep school crossing patrols in calderdale west yorkshire
Rejected

What the petition asks
We were informed this morning by our lovely school crossing patrol lady that calderdale council are reducing the amount of school crossing patrols throughout the borough? I would like to help prevent this.
The safety of our children is paramount! The journey to and from school, especially crossing busy roads can be extremely dangerous without someone to help guide them. Cutting school crossing patrols is disgusting and I would like to raise concern towards this happening in our town.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
