Hello oh wonderful IC Change community! We need your help! In exactly one week today, on Friday 16 December, MPs have the chance to vote in a life-saving law for women and girls - one that will require the UK Government to make the Istanbul Convention law once and for all in the UK. --- www.icchange.co.uk/pmb Have you asked your MP to show up and vote for this life-saving law for women and girls? This is a rare opportunity for us to change the lives of women and girls throughout the UK today and for generations to come. It’s an opportunity to Change Herstory. 100 MPs have to turn up and vote for the bill on 16 December to ensure it can progress to the next stage. We need your help to make sure this happens. Find out more here: www.icchange.org/PMB See simple ways for contacting your MP here (including a template letter you can use): http://icchange.co.uk/take-action-and-change-herstory/ It only takes a few minutes and could #ChangeHerstory. Getting 100 MPs there on the Friday before Christmas is a challenge. Over the last few weeks we have been hearing from people across the country who have been getting in touch with their MPs in fun and creative ways. The numbers of MPs pledging to attend the debate have been rising but we still don’t have enough to make sure the bill makes it past this stage. Voting for this law will help to secure vital protection from violence for women and girls across the UK. That’s a pretty great Christmas gift for MPs to give. Help us to finish 2016 with hope for a better future by making sure your MP shows their support on December 16th. We really need your support on this so please visit www.icchange.org/PMB and help make 2017 a year to remember. Thank you!! Amy and the IC Change team PS.
