The word from insiders in MPs’ offices is that letters and emails are taken very seriously – and counted! For everyone who takes the time to raise an issue with them, they know there are many more people who feel the same way. If they receive lots of correspondence on a particular issue, it will be discussed in policy meetings and can have an effect on decision-making. MPs are supposed to respond to all communications from their constituents, but they are much more likely to sit up and take notice of a personal email or letter as it shows their constituent cares enough to take the time. And it doesn’t matter if it’s an email or handwritten letter - they all count.
This practical workshop will give you the best techniques to help you write to your local MPs and to the media to call for action on issues you care about. Bring along some ideas of topics or issues you're interested in and you can practice writing during the workshop!
