Help Save Lives and Limbs
With conflict gripping the Middle East, increasing numbers of civilians are in danger from landmines and explosive remnants of war. These vicious weapons threaten the lives and limbs of innocent civilians in Lebanon, Syria and Gaza, and other countries such as Libya and Afghanistan.
Almost half of the recorded civilian victims are children. There is an urgent need for risk education, especially for people living in or returning to conflict affected areas who may be unaware of the hidden danger.
Take a stand for a safer world. Sign the petition to Prime Minister David Cameron right now.
I call on Prime Minister David Cameron to help save lives and limbs.

I urge the Prime Minister to ensure that UK Aid helps to save the lives and limbs of civilians affected by conflict, by providing life-saving risk education to prevent accidents involving landmines and explosive remnants of war and by urgently prioritising the clearance of contaminated areas as soon as the situation allows.
