Please write to your new MP
The waterways are valuable assets to our country but ongoing funding is critical if we are to protect them, as highlighted by the Fund Britain’s Waterways campaign.
With your help, our waterways may stand a chance of securing the investment they need. This is why, now that our new MPs have been elected, we encourage all waterways supporters to write to their Parliamentary representative about the importance of waterways funding.
All candidates were sent a copy of our Election Statement and Fund Britain’s Waterways issued a Press Release ahead of the 4th July General Election. We will shortly be contacting all newly elected MPs, but a letter from a local constituent carries much more weight than from a national office. To assist you in writing to your MP, you can find details of your MP here. Our Parliamentary Directory, which shows which waterways are in each parliamentary constituency has been updated – see link below. You can also see the full geographic area covered by your MP’s constituency here.
