A question about : You and Your MP

The UK is divided into 650 different regions called ‘constituencies’ where the public elect candidates to be their MP.

MPs have public contact details so their constituents can get in touch. In most cases you can write, phone, fax or email. MPs will generally only act on behalf of their own constituents, so please check you are contacting the MP who represents your constituency.

To check who your MP is please go to: Find Your MP

(All you need is your postcode to find out who your MP is)

A question about : Share stuff with your street

Are you a skilled seamstress? Would you share your ladder, lawnmower or lunchbox? Do you have old clothes or clutter taking up space in your cupboards? Would you like to share them with your neighbours?
