#Enough: One More Card at Christmas

Action, Blog, Poverty and Inequality · 3 December, 2015

Thank you to everyone who sent a Christmas Card to Iain Duncan Smith highlighting the need for every child to have #enough.

Christmas is over but the Bill that breaks the link between a families needs and the level of support it can recieve from the benefit system is still moving through Parliament. You can contact your MP to voice your concerns using the tool provided here.

There are 68 Christmas cards sent each year per family in Britain

This year we are asking you to send ONE MORE CARD.

This Christmas there will be many who do not have enough to live on. We want to ask Government to ensure that every child has enough.

So when you write your Christmas cards we want you to send ONE MORE CARD to….

Iain Duncan Smith!

  • Wish him a happy Christmas!
  • Ask that he helps ensure that every child has enough at Christmas

 

It’s important that the Government knows that as Christians we care about them and their work. It’s also important that government knows that we care that every child has enough.

76 young people at 3generate wrote cards. Will you join them?!

If you can, and would like to, tweet a picture of yourself writing your card to @PublicIssues using the hashtags #enough and #onemorecard and see who else across the country is joining the campaign.

The address to send your Christmas cards to:

Rt Hon Iain Duncan Smith MP

Department for Work and Pensions

Caxton House

Tothill Street

London

SW1H 9NA
