Dear [INSERT MP NAME], %0D%0A
%0D%0A
My postcode is [INSERT POSTCODE]. As one of your constituents, I am writing to draw attention to a campaign launched by UK charity, Home for Good. %0D%0A
%0D%0A
With 1 in 4 children in the care system aged 16 and over, there is a significant shortage of suitable, high-quality provision to care for our most vulnerable teenagers. The impact is that too many are faced with isolation and poor-quality accommodation as they journey towards adulthood. %0D%0A
%0D%0A
Home for Good believes that every young person in care should be supported to launch into adulthood and their future. Supported lodgings can be a key part of enabling this. You can watch the 2-minute campaign video here: www.homeforgood/ready-to-launch %0D%0A
%0D%0A
I’m writing to ask you to support this campaign by writing to the Government to ask them to make supported lodgings a priority provision for young people. It holds the potential to enable more young people to be provided with the support and relationships they need at this crucial stage in their life. %0D%0A
%0D%0A
I look forward to hearing from you. %0D%0A

Yours sincerely, %0D%0A
