Voices UK has been circulating campaigning letters and helping people to answer the letters they get back from the Foreign Office for over two years now.

Building on our experience, we are calling together a monthly letter-writing group, which will operate at least until the next General Election. The purpose is to make our letter-writing campaign more organised and effective, and to enrol more letter-writers.

If you can spare 20 minutes at the beginning of every month for the next six months or so, please do join the group. We believe that letter-writing is a very valuable part of the campaign.

Members of the Letter Writing Group will receive notes for letters to send to decision-makers; and briefings giving you the facts you need.

If you would like to join the group, please email me at kcnl@globalnet.co.uk.

Obviously people are free to write what they choose, but at the same time we feel it would be a good idea to have many letters focusing on a particular theme each month. Hence the notes.

**Please** do send us copies of the letters you send, and any replies you receive. This will enable use to compose quick and comprehensive responses.
