Dear [MP’s Name],

My name is [your name] and I am writing to you today as a resident in your constituency. I am writing to you about ….[*insert topic here, it could be trans healthcare, transphobia, tackling misinformation etc.*]

This matter is important to me because [*insert your concerns but also its very impactful to include your own experiences*]

[A few examples can be press transphobia, trans healthcare, tackling misinformation, legal recognition for non-binary people etc.]

I am sure that [*insert an angle that would interest your MP. This could include safety and dignity, personal freedom, opportunities for people to contribute to society*] is important to you. [*insert information about how the issue prevents you from achieving this*]

Please could you:

[*bullet list of clear actions, for example ‘Write to the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care’*]

by [*reasonable timeline, for example a date a month after your are writing*].

In your response I would like you to outline the ways you intend to address this on my behalf. If you’re unable to address this personally, I would like to request that you escalate my letter to the relevant Minister or department. 

If I can provide you with any more information on this matter, or if you would like to arrange to discuss it with me, please do let me know.

Yours faithfully,

[Your name]
