As you know we would like people to get in touch with their local MPs and

raise the pressing issue of the need for funding in their area. Here's a draft

you can use to reach out to your Hounslow MPs, Seema Malhotra and Ruth

Cadbury. Feel free to personalize it by adding your own experiences and

circumstances: Subject: Urgent Funding Needed for the National Autism Strategy

---

Dear [MP's Name],

I hope this email finds you well. As a constituent and a passionate advocate

for autistic individuals and their families, I am writing to urge your support in

securing funding for the implementation of the National Strategy for Autistic

Children, Young People, and Adults: 2021 to 2026.

This strategy represents a crucial step toward improving the lives of autistic

individuals across England. It addresses key areas such as education,

employment, healthcare, and community support. However, without adequate

funding, its impact will remain limited.

As you know, autism affects approximately 1 in 100 people in the UK, and the

challenges faced by autistic individuals and their families are often complex

and lifelong. Early intervention, accessible services, and tailored support are

essential to ensuring a better quality of life for autistic individuals.

I kindly request that you use your influence to advocate for increased funding

to implement the strategy. Specifically, I urge you to:

  1. Prioritize Funding: Allocate resources promptly to support the strategy's implementation. Every delay affects the lives of autistic children, young people, and adults.

  2. Collaborate: Work with relevant government departments, local authorities, and community organizations to ensure effective coordination and delivery of services.

  3. Monitor Progress: Regularly assess the strategy's impact and address any gaps or challenges that arise during implementation.

Personal Paragraph (Optional):

[Insert your personal experiences here. Describe how the lack of adequate

support has affected you or your loved ones. Share any challenges you've

faced and emphasize the urgency of funding.]

[Your Full Name] [Your Address] [City, Postcode] [Email Address] [Phone
