Urgent: Ask your MP to speak up for National Parks this week

There is an important opportunity for MPs to tell the Government about the value of National Parks and to highlight why their funding should be protected in the upcoming spending review. The fact that millions of people participate in outdoor recreation in National Parks every year makes a significant contribution to the nation's economy and our health and well-being but these benefits are currently at risk due to cuts in funding.

This Wednesday (28 October), David Rutley, MP for Macclesfield and a strong supporter of National Parks, has secured a parliamentary debate on the economic value of outdoor recreation. We want to encourage as many MPs as possible to be there and speak up for National Parks.

MPs are more likely to participate in debates if they know the issue is important to their constituents. Please contact your local MP today and ask them to speak up about the value of National Parks on Wednesday.
