The power of local media

We thought that we were going insane, we couldn't understand what was happening to us, what had happened to my son. INQUEST has supported, enabled, educated and empowered and restored our faith in justice. We were given back our voice. – Family member

Most elected representatives are as concerned about their local media coverage as about appearing in the national press. They have to work hard to keep a good reputation with the local media. They also read local papers so they can stay in touch with what is happening in their area.

If you can get letters published in the local paper, you may find your MP begins to take notice. Never underestimate how important local papers (and local radio / TV stations) are. Make good use of them.
