We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Rejected petition Create more activity centres for young people around Ruislip.
I would like the government to fund an activity centre in the local area of Ruislip so that teenagers have access to a place that they can go to take part in physical activity for free outside of education.
More details
I feel that teenagers should be able to have a place that they can go to for free to take part in managed activities outside of school. Having place like this in Ruislip could bring the community closer together and turn teenagers away from other negative activity they may be taking part in out of school.
