Protect our NHS from trade deals - write to your local newspaper now

There is still no legal protection for our NHS in trade deals, so our NHS is still at risk of higher drug prices, and more, irreversible privatisation by US and other private healthcare companies. 

That's unacceptable. Write to your local paper today to put pressure on your MP to push for NHS protections in Parliament. 

The more letters get submitted to local papers, the more MPs will realise that they must protect our NHS.

How to write your letter

Even if you've never written a letter to a newspaper before, this is a straightforward, quick and easy action for you to take. These tips might be helpful:

  • We've written a draft letter which you can adapt and send to your local newspaper. Try to use this as a guide and personalise it as much as you can. 
  • You can usually find the email address to send your letter to on the website of your local newspaper. Typically, this will be listed in the "contact us" section, why you can normally find a link to at the very bottom of the newspaper's website.
  • If you need help with drafting your letter, or finding where to send it to, get in touch with We Own It's press officer at christopher@weownit.org.uk
