Dear John,

Rain. Rain. Rain.

From Cardiff to Glasgow, London to Sheffield, the weather for polling day on Thursday looks wet, windy and very cold.

For many, nothing the weather could throw at you would stop you getting to the polling station and voting the Tories out!

But for some, the weather can have a very real effect on their mobility, and their ability to get out and vote.   

So, it’s up to us to look out for each other, and make sure everyone in our community is able to have their say on Thursday 12th December.

This could mean walking with an elderly neighbour to the polling station who might be unsteady on icy ground, looking after your friend’s kids while they nip out to vote, or driving a young colleague who doesn’t want to walk 20 minutes in the pouring rain.

There are so many little things we can do to make sure people are heard next week.

Take five minutes to fill out our survey, and you can help us optimise our polling day outreach programme!

Don’t let any of your friends, neighbours or family miss out on this crucial election. In a democracy, no one should be denied a vote.

If you’re not sure where your polling station is, you can find out here!

There hasn’t been a winter election since 1935! No one quite knows how the weather might affect the turnout on Thursday 12 December. So let’s be prepared for the very worst that British weather can give us.

Best wishes,

Cary Mitchell
Head of Campaigns, Best for Britain

P.S. Make sure everyone you know has heard about GetVoting.org and knows how to vote tactically to stop the Brexit Conservatives on Thursday 12th December.
