The link to the petition won't show here if it is by a certain group and it is starred.
Some have signed so have been able to find it...maybe you could give some clues to those who wish to sign :thumbsup:

Cms cannot claim for caring for relatives ....but...it is up to the LAs to fund them if they can find the money from another pot
It is in the DfE Guidance...please take a look.... but I doubt that any LA will find any spare money due to the mindless cuts taking place

This is a cause worth fighting for ...hope cms keep the pressure up!

I have signed. This is very important to me as I care for my nephew and he will have to move or his parents still pay me once 30 hours kicks in. Very unfair! The link took me straight to the petition :-)

I am sure that the starred link does not take us to the petition...maybe you know whose it is and have been able to access it that way
if you click the link it says the page cannot be displayed...however....it is easy to know which one it is...it is not 38 Degree or a Govt petition so easy to find out

I signed that petition ages ago...it won't get anywhere unfortunately so the fight has to be taken elsewhere.


let's hope it gets debated at some stage....let's stay positive :thumbsup:
