You can also sign a petition in-person at one of our community hosts. Scroll down for a map and list of the locations, or click this link to jump straight there:

• Yes, you need to be an SA resident or on the SA electoral roll.
• Yes, kids can sign too if they want to.
• Yes, you must provide your address (preferably as it appears on the electoral roll).
• No, you don't have to fill in the entire sheet before you return it. We'll happily accept a sheet from you with even just one signature.
• The wording was decided after a week of conversation with stakeholders and community groups, and was very deliberately chosen. It cannot be changed. It is vitally important that you do not modify the petition before soliciting signatures. All pages must appear the same to be valid.
• Yes, you can print heaps of copies and ask as many people as you can find to sign.
• We are seeking at least 10,000 signatures, which means just 666 of you need to return a full form to hit this target!
• Please return forms by 31 July 2026 (or earlier!). This timeframe is based around the next sitting days of Parliament after the winter break.
• Unfortunately the online petition with nearly 50,000 signatures cannot be accepted by SA Parliament. Parliament only accepts hard copy original signature forms. We must do a physical petition.

Please DO NOT use 'wite-out' or correction tape. There is a risk that this will invalidate the entire sheet.

Please only mark the sheet with pen.

If you can fix the mistake in-place, go for it.

The simplest way to deal with a mistake is to draw a continuous line through the entire row, and then re-sign the sheet in the next row down.
