lobbying decision makers
Skills and tips for meeting your MP.
Decision makers are the people that hold the power to change policy and influence others, such as members of Parliament or local council. Lobbying is the practice of influencing decisions made by government. It includes all attempts to influence your member of parliament and you can do this by meeting your MP as one of their constituents.
The job of an MP or local councillor is to represent all of their constituents, regardless of their age. It is important that you let them know why you believe Votes at 16 is important and how it will benefit 16 and 17 year olds in your community.
