Rejected petition Allow all UK Cadets to help out on the streets.

Allow all Cadets such as Police Cadets, Army Cadets, navy and sea Cadets, Fire Cadets and St John's Ambulance cadets to come together and be put on the streets to help with the Emergency Services.

More details

This would help put more experience out for the Cadets and less stress for the Public Services sector. This would allow most of this sector to focus primarily on the Covid-19 outbreak.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The Government sponsors and supports a number of cadet forces, but decisions about the operations of those forces are a matter for the organisations that run them, not the Government or Parliament.

The Government has published guidance on how people can help safely during the current outbreak, which may be of interest: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-how-to-help-safely--2/coronavirus-how-to-help-safely
