Current ePetitions

Laptop User

The Council has implemented a Petitions Scheme which sets out the procedures for submitting written and electronic petitions to the Council.

An ePetition is a petition which collects signatures online. This allows petitions and supporting information to be made available to a potentially much wider audience than a traditional paper based petition.

Anyone who lives, works or studies in Herefordshire can submit or sign an ePetition.

ePetitions are part of Herefordshire Council's ongoing commitment to listening to and acting on the views of the public.

Supporting an ePetition

To support an existing ePetition choose an ePetition and add your name, address and email address.

To find out more about the issue, see the supporting information, provided by the lead petitioner, attached to the ePetition.

Submitting an ePetition

An ePetition can relate to any issue on which the Council has powers or duties or on which it has shared delivery responsibilities through a partnership arrangement.

Read the ePetition Guidance to find out how to submit an ePetition and how the Council will deal with your ePetition.


You may also like to start a paper petition, this works in exactly the same way as an ePetition except that you must hand the petition into the Council or submit it to a councillor. This can work well for collecting signatures in person. You can use our printable petition template for your paper petition.
