Use Your Voice. Change Your Country.
No experience needed. No public speaking, no door-knocking, no meetings — just your own words, from your own kitchen table.

A message from our CEO
Chief Executive Officer, Great British PAC
Thank you for loving this country as much as we do, and for stepping up to help protect her. What you do matters more than you might realise, and you've already proven that people power works.
There is one extraordinary night in the House of Lords that will always stand out to me, because it demonstrated exactly what our Email Warriors can achieve.
As peers prepared to debate and vote on the surrender of the Chagos Islands, our Email Warriors sprang into action. Throughout that night, thousands of emails were sent to members of the House of Lords. Some volunteers sent 30, or even 40, individually addressed messages, refusing to stop until our concerns, and those of the Chagossian people, had been heard.
By the following morning, our campaign seemed to be all anyone in the Lords was talking about. Together, we had made the strength of public opposition impossible to ignore. Ratification was stopped in its tracks that day, and Lord Callanan publicly acknowledged that the Great British PAC could take credit for helping to achieve it.
It proved something I will never forget: determined citizens can still change what happens in Parliament. Thank you for being one of them. People power!
The case
Why it matters
Change doesn't only happen at election time.
Every week, decisions are made by ministers, MPs, councils, regulators, businesses and public bodies that affect the future of our country. Those making the decisions should hear from the people they represent.
One email can make a point. Hundreds of individually written emails can demonstrate that an issue matters to people across Britain.
Most emails to politicians are forgotten, deleted or ignored.
But when hundreds of people from every corner of the country write individually, respectfully and passionately about the same issue, people take notice. That is the power of the Email Warriors.
How it works
Three steps
A mission lands in your inbox
The Email Warriors team sends you what's happening, why it matters, who to contact, the background you need — and an example email to work from.
You write your own email
In your own words. It could be a line. It could be an essay. Your words are what make it count — a hundred identical emails read as one.
Take part when you can
Nobody takes part in every campaign and nobody is expected to. Skip the ones you can't do — there's no register and no chasing.
We're recruiting more Email Warriors. Joining takes a few minutes, and you write in your own words.
