Petition Begging and busking
More details
We want the government to decriminalise begging. People who are forced to beg are obviously in need of help. The government, and society as a whole, has a duty of care to protect our most vulnerable. We do not want to see people, who are forced to beg, being handed criminal records, we want to see them given the help they need
