Dear John

As you may know, we plan to send as many newly-elected or re-elected MPs as possible a piece of knitted food – to let them know that folk around the country want politicians to act now to end hunger in the UK. We will be asking them to show their support by tweeting a picture of themselves with the woolly foodstuff.

At the last count we had an amazing 517 individual knitted or crocheted foodstuffs. Thank you so much to everyone who has sent something in, they are amazing! This is now the final push to meet the target of 650 and reach every MP.

We have been blown away by all the items that we have received but we need you to keep going! We need the yarn-talented among you to make as many carrots, cakes and Cornish pasties and anything else you can think of as possible, and send them to us by 17 February.
