Neighbourhood petition
To ask for a zebra crossing, save a tree or reopen a service: each neighbour signs with their name and email, the form shows how many supporters there are towards the target and, on signing, everyone knows their number and has the links to share it. The same email can't sign twice.
Who it's for: Residents' associations, citizen platforms, parents' groups and collectives.

Can we email you about how the campaign is going?YesNo
When to use it
- Your neighbourhood wants to ask the council for something and needs to show backing.
- You want people to see how many have signed, to encourage others.
- You're worried about people signing more than once.
What's inside and why
- So each email signs once only.
- Can we email you?
- Optional: only email those who said yes.
Tips to get the most out of it
- Say in the description what you're asking for, from whom and why: people sign what they get in ten seconds.
- Pick a reachable target: a moving bar encourages more than a stuck one.
- Share the link and QR code in doorways and local shops.
Frequently asked questions
Can it be used for an official citizens' initiative?
No: an official citizens' initiative or procedure requires certified signatures (with an electronic certificate or before a notary). This collects support to show backing.
Can someone sign twice?
Not with the same email: each email signs once, even with different capitals. For more control, the settings let you limit it to one response per device.
Can people see who has signed?
No: the form only shows how many supporters there are. You see the names, in the responses, and can download them as CSV.
