Become an MP correspondent
YOU CAN.
Your local MP is your link to parliament. They have a say over decisions which affect the future of the world’s poorest people. And as a constituent, you have a say over what they do on your behalf.
You don’t have to be an expert. By contacting your MP you can use your power and passion to help change the systems that keep people in poverty.
MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Through letters and meetings with MPs, CAFOD supporters have already secured tough climate change laws, and seen billions of pounds of debt cancelled. We've grabbed ministers’ attention and changed government policy.
WHAT DOES IT INVOLVE?
As a CAFOD MP Correspondent, we’ll ask you to write to your MP three times a year. And when we need to up the pressure for change, we’ll ask you to visit your MP too. You need to live in a constituency in England or Wales to join our MP Correspondents' network. We’ll support you with:
• a starter pack
• sample letters or lobbying info to equip you to act
• training, support and opportunities to share ideas with other MPCs.

Please note: We are now asking MPs to write to Norman Lamb, instead of Ed Davey, due a government reshuffle.
