Thank you for being one of over 7000 people to sign the petition to Keep Radio 4 Longwave. We are now at a critical point where the BBC is announcing the service will close in September. Perhaps the only way now to save it is for as many MPs as possible to sign the Early Day Motion in parliament. Please, please email your MP and forward them the motion:

https://edm.parliament.uk/early-day-motion/64494/future-of-bbc-radio-4-longwave#collapse-signatures

You can find your MP's contact details here:

This is an apolitical motion open to all parties to sign.

Please also consider contacting the BBC's Feedback programme:

Thank you for everything you are able to do. This may be our last chance to save our vital national longwave signal.
