Just suggesting a few changes for style/clarity.
What’s the point of this site, when most representatives publish their email addresses?
One of the primary reasons we run WriteToThem is to help people write to their representatives, even if they don’t know who they are.
A significant proportion of the population does not know who their current MP is, and that sector is likely, on average, to reflect younger people, less educated people, renters or members of a Black, Asian or Minority Ethnic (BAME) group [link to mysociety research].
We want to make it easy and straightforward for people to contact their representatives regardless of their existing knowledge.
This helping hand is even more important when it comes to accessing local government: awareness of councillors among these social demographics is also likely to be lower than national figures.
Building on upcoming research around MP recognition, want to suggest a change in the FAQ to reflect current picture of knowledge.
Suggest replacing:
With:
This could go live with the research (likely to be late February?)
