Firstly, a huge thank you to everyone who has signed and supported this petition so far 🙏. Your backing has already made a real difference — together we’ve pushed this issue into the spotlight.

Here’s what’s been achieved so far:

✅ The campaign has been raised with South Lanarkshire Council, MSPs, and local councillors.

✅ We’ve gained coverage in both local and national press, with more media interest building.

✅ Parents and pupils came together for a community photo to show the dangers of the route, helping strengthen our case.

✅ Our local representatives have confirmed their support and are actively raising this issue on our behalf.

But we need to keep the momentum going. South Lanarkshire Council must act in line with its own safety guidance and reinstate safe, inclusive transport for all Sandford pupils.

👉 Please keep sharing the petition link widely — every signature counts, even from people outside the area. The bigger our numbers, the harder it is for the Council to ignore us.
