We want a new pharmacy for South Queensferry
My wife and I applied for an NHS contract to dispense prescriptions in the new pharmacy we are planning to open in South Queensferry to serve the town’s rapidly growing population.

Bring Dr DeAnn Bell back to Bangor!
Students of creative writing at Bangor university are devastated to hear the news that Dr DeAnn Bell has been (in our opinion) unfairly laid off. DeAnn is in many ways a vital organ to the school of Languages, Literatures and Linguistics- especially for literature and creative writing aspect.

Not only inspiring us to believe in o

Shut down Mclaren Circus, South Africa
Mclaren circus uses animals such as lions, snakes, tigers, camels and many more. These animals should not be used as entertainment and these animals deserve to have a better life and be free from that horrible business. The animals deserve to be respected and to be free to live in the wild instead of cages for peoples entertainment. THIS NEEDS TO STOP.
