  • It is important to ensure you include the address and postcode of the local activity, so that the MP can verify that it is in their constituency.
  • You can email the letter to your MP, by filling in the relevant details before copying and pasting it into an email.
  • You could also print or handwrite the letter and send it to your MP’s office.
  • If you haven’t heard back from your MP after about two weeks, you should follow up your email or letter with a phone call. Their details will be available here.
  • When writing to your MP it is important to always remain polite and courteous.
