How you can help with campaigning

Whilst Sands has a structured campaigning programme and has met with many of the key health representatives, politicians ultimately want to hear from – and listen more to! – their local constituents. We need your help to spread the word and raise awareness. 

We need to continue to raise awareness of stillbirth and neonatal deaths amongst politicians, and to focus their minds on our specific issues and demands. The new coalition government is proposing radical changes to the NHS and we need to ensure that our issues are given the priority, attention and funding they deserve. 

Your local MP, MSP, AM or MLA is interested to learn more about the concerns of their local constituents, and can begin to ask questions about standards of care and services at a very local level. He or she can also get behind larger, national campaigns. The influence that you can bring to bear cannot be underestimated....so use our guides and resources, and get campaigning!
