MP Engagement

Short Template Letter – Invite your MP to visit

Since the General Election, we’ve been busy writing to all MPs across Greater Manchester on your behalf. We’ve talked about the vital role of our sector, the urgent need more funding and the importance of protecting our workforce.

Now we need your help.

To support our efforts, we are asking you to write to your own local MP and invite them to visit your pharmacy.

To make this as easy as possible we’ve adapted a short letter template that you can use

Letter – Invite MP to visit

Just add the name of your local MP, their constituency and the name of your pharmacy.

CPE have produced an MP briefing which you can provide to an MP during their visit.

If you would like any support with writing to your MP, please email enquiries@cpgm.uk

Please also let us know if you have written to your MP and arranged a visit so that we can be on hand to support you in the lead up to and throughout the day.

Find your MP

If you are unsure about who your MP is, visit to the UK parliament website and enter your postcode.

This will bring up the name of your local MP, their constituency and email address you will need to send the MP letter to.

Our engagement with MPs

We are acutely aware of the significant pressures many of you are facing. At this critical time, we are committed to supporting you and have been working hard to engage with MPs across Greater Manchester and encourage them to support our cause.

Please be assured that we have and will continue to regularly write to all MPs across Greater Manchester highlighting the excellent work carried out by our contractors and requested support to tackle the issues faced in community pharmacies.
