Petition Action

Close Medway schools to stop the spread of Covid 19.

Petition Details

The Medway area has the highest number of Covid cases, almost double that of any other area. Schools have become hotbeds for the virus and staff, children and families are suffering as a result. Closing one week early for Christmas is the sensible option.

Additional Information

Tier 3 appears to be having little impact on the spread of the virus in Medway. More needs to be done to protect our families, hospitals and communities.
