Contact Your Politicians
You can advocate for positive social change by directly contacting the politicians for your area and/or who are responsible for a particular portfolio.
It’s a politician’s job to listen to their constituents, understand the issues and do what is in the best interests of the community, in consultation with the community.
Contact your elected representatives through post, email, phone, social media, and face-to-face meetings. You can find links to their contact details below.
