We, the undersigned, petition the UK Prime Minister to restore Edward Jenner's Statue to Trafalgar Square to mark the 30th Anniversary of the Eradication of Smallpox in 2010. Edward Jenner (1749-1823), the man who changed the world, saved more lives than anyone else in history by pioneering vaccination (against Smallpox) in 1796.
His statue, currently in Kensington Gardens, used to be in Trafalgar Square and should be returned there to mark the 30th Anniversary of the worldwide eradication of smallpox. It is time for one of our great national (and international) heroes to finally be celebrated.
