URGENT ATTENTION REQUIRED 

HI, early this year I brought to your attention a petition for change of which Leicester City Council threatened to stop all transport and funding to post 16 students with special educational needs.we managed to overturn the decision until the end of academic year 24/25 due to poor communication and illegal practices.A new consultation is now underway which runs until the 2nd of January 2025, LINK BELOW .I am asking every single human being that supports this cause whether directly affected or not to complete this consultation PLEASE. Uprising 16 year olds will not be aware of this to date. A proposed policy will scrap completely all transport assistance for send students. Which is completely discriminatory in my view. you do not have to be an affected family member to complete this,all you need is a moral understanding that if this happens the most vulnerable within our society will be completely be written off.leaving families disproportionately treated unfairly , discriminated because these young people are disabled and will be neither in education or employment.

PLEASE HELP THESE VOICELESS YOUNG PEOPLE BE HEARD.

THANK YOU IN ANTICIPATION
