What it asks

Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to make sure every school can provide adequate sports facilities and resources for their students and to create a minimum level of facilities available.

What the petitioner did first

Having contacted North Ayrshire Council many times I always get the same reply James Watt College can’t afford it and having tried to get MSPs to help I get the same response constantly. Money is the main issue why the movement can’t go forward former councillor and now MSP Margaret McDougall told me. The only help I have received is from the MP for North Ayrshire, Ms Katy Clark who has been very helpful but I feel even her attempts are limited. Also having contacted councillors all seem unhelpful and unable to help in this important matter.
Although this is only one example I believe in other local authorities there will be similar examples.
