We the undersigned petition Sheffield city council, executive cabinet, full council member's, relevant scrutiny board and ask that as part of the local plan that serious consideration is given to burial sites across Sheffield for muslim community, as part of the framework for futures with immediate effect.

Muslim burial sites are now in very limited capacities in Sheffield especially in darnall/tinsley cemeteries etc and we need more sites identified for future and as part of the planning framework this subject is given serious consideration. 

We request that Sheffield city council instructs bereavement services and other depts within council to identify sites and relevant scrutiny  board to look into depth and bring a report before the full council without delay  and be part of the future forward planning. 

Furthermore look into providing tools at burial at all muslim cemeteries  eg jcb/digger as it's  needed at burial time.
