Wreaths at courts for campaign

A Long Sutton man has been laying wreaths at court buildings in the area to raise awareness of suicides among single parents.

Simon Cobb set up PAPA (People Against Parental Alienation) before the pandemic, calling for equality between divorcing parents over children.
More recently he’s taken part in ‘The Death Penalty Campaign’.
“It is a global campaign designed to raise awareness of the untimely deaths linked to contact denial and parental alienation,” Simon said. “To do this we are putting on demonstrations outside courthouses in the UK and across the globe.
“We at PAPA say NO to the “death penalty” because loving your child is not a crime.
“Our campaign is designed to demonstrate the impact these needless deaths have on families across the world and to call for better frameworks to prevent these deaths from happening.”
Simon claims that over 200 children lost contact with a parent per week in the UK.
In recent weeks he’s laid wreaths at a host of courts including Boston, Peterborough and Nottingham.
“The mortality rate for alienated parents is incredibly high so it’s vital that we address this as soon as possible before more lives are lost and before more children are forced to permanently live without their other parent,” he said.
