<DIV>Dear Colleagues,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks to the innovative and hard graft of Steve Buckley and Karl Hartland,
we have all been given an incredible and exclusive opportunity to make a case
for greater funding via the <A
href="http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/allthevoices/">http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/allthevoices/</A> petition.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Unfortunately, after 2 weeks of this petition being live, and countless
e-mails and messages... theres a lacklustre response - in fact just 650 people
have bothered to sign the petition. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is a national campaign designed to help YOUR radio station, not "a
save our village post office" petition.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm pleased to see that at least 50% of our team at Salford have
signed up. I'm still pushing it to those that havent.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Before we start thinking of how to increase the petition numbers AFTER all
practitioners, volunteers and first hand beneficiaries have signed up... can we
all take 15 minutes to get this sorted and promoted amongst our own teams?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It really is just a case of e-mailing your volunteers and service
users to tell them how important it is that we all sign the petition. Its
not difficult at all.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Heres the link <A

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><EM>*The free cash surely comes later...</EM></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>IMPORTANT NOTE</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If this figure stays so pitiful - it will have an awful
and detrimental effect on the whole sector - the total opposite of what it
was designed for.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>COME ON GUYS... ITS WORTH 15 MINUTES OUT OF OUR BUSY DAY ISNT IT? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Lets march together!</DIV>
