The lifts at our Dart stations are constantly breaking down and out of order. We want the 4hr request to travel removed and station attendants back on our platforms. We want a dart service that is inclusive and available to every one.

When construction of the new harbour at Greystones, Co Wicklow, began, all harbour users, including the traditional fishermen and their boats, had their moorings and other facilities removed while the project was being built. When the harbour was complete, the other users such as leisure clubs were provided with full facilities including new clubhouses, boat yards, storage and so forth. But the fishermen and their boats were excluded from the new harbour. This was despite the promises and guarantees we were given before we left in 2008 and on many occasions since, and in spite of the fact that provision of facilities to commercial fishers was included in the planning approval granted by Bord Pleanala. In 2014, Wicklow County Council issued harbour by-laws which effectively excluded the fishing fleet. The by-laws give a nod to mooring rights but, by imposing other conditions that are impossible to meet, effectively barred the fishing fleet from Greystones Harbour and transformed this traditional community harbour into a purely leisure boating facility. We, the fishing families of Greystones, do not accept this expulsion and have launched our new campaign to ensure that we can return from ten years of exile to our home port, with full rights to moor, land our catch, store bait and other equipment, and generally carry on our trade as we and our predecessors have traditionally done in Greystones for hundreds of years.

 For more than ten years now, we have had to moor at Dun Laoghaire, with huge disruption to our family and social lives. We have to drive to Dun Laoghaire each morning, drive our boats back to our traditional fishing grounds near our home port, then land our catch at Dun Laoghaire before we ready our boats for the next day and FINALLY drive home to Greystones, usually well after eight in the evening after a pre-dawn start. And being exiled to Dun Laoghaire adds €150 each week in fuel costs alone. Please sign this petition, which will be presented to the Minister for the Environment, the Minister for the Marine, and to the chief executive of Wicklow County Council. Your support can help ensure that we can come home at last, and that our skippers and crew can resume a normal existence. We now must negotiate with Wicklow County Council, and every person stepping forward to support our cause will influence how they deal with us and bring a positive outcome closer. Bring the boats home!

We are concerned citizens who urge our TD's and County Councillors and the Department of Education to act now and announce the building of a new Educate together school'. Our town is growing rapidly and we've reached the numbers quicker than expected.

We are strongly opposed to the recent designation of Tramore Educate Together National School as having ‘half-stream’ status and are calling on the Department of Education & Skills to re-designate it as a full-stream school immediately. We are also asking as a matter of urgency that the Department of Education provide information on accommodation for the school for this September. In 2017, after many months of contacting the Forward Planning Section of the D.E.S. regarding our concerns for a permanent building for September 2018, the Board of Management contacted our local representatives to further our campaign. This is the answer to a recent parliamentary question asked in the Dail on our behalf: “pending the school's permanent accommodation becoming available, the school has been operating in temporary accommodation. The school building to be vacated for this school's permanent accommodation is still occupied by the amalgamated school for which an extension project is currently at architectural planning stage.” This accommodation will not be available for September and we are at capacity in our temporary accommodation.

In every workplace in Ireland you are required to hold a valid occupational first aid certificate before beginning or obtain one while in employment. Why can't it be the same for mental health first aid? Helps: - Understand when someone needs help and where to send them. - Eliminates the stigma associated with mental health. - Everyone understands mental health better together. In 2019, roughly 421 people that were reported lost there lives to suicide in Ireland. There has been an epidemic in Ireland long before covid 19 and it has gone unnoticed. I am therefore calling on our government as well as companies to make it mandatory that you have to have a proper suicide prevention training or mental health first aid before starting any job. ***An assessment prior to the course will be carried out by trainers to understand the workers own mental wellbeing and to make sure to cater to each group so that people doing the course are not triggered.*** There is a mental health first aid course delivered through Mental Health Ireland. https://www.mhfaireland.ie/workplace?fbclid=IwAR1PCZi11aNcfwGyBygJrwvhHph5SOUo8qmkdF5QWWV9pzcp4bJcGVZpMoQ This does NOT take away from the fact we need more specialists such as counsellors in schools and psychologists as these are the people the first responders will be sending the people that are struggling too. I ask the government of Ireland to prevent any further suicides by passing this requirement into law. Enough is enough. I.E. this is also not a petition designed so that the government can wash there hands of 24hour services at A and Es and specialists which are badly needed in Ireland.

PLEASE SHARE: Today every nurse and midwife received an NMBI retention fee bill for €100. This bill has insulted every single one of us. We believe this fee is incredibly unfair especially this year when we have put our lives on the line for the past 8 months and as we continue to put our health and our families health at risk during the pandemic. We would very much appreciate it if politicians including Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly for Wicklow could show even a small appreciation for nurses and midwives in Ireland by asking the government to pay our fee this year. Please tag your TD... Maybe just maybe they might fight for us!
