** A fair and inclusive society
------------------------------------------------------------


** That’s what we want this Christmas
------------------------------------------------------------

Dear friend,

Every day, someone in the UK takes their first steps to change something that matters to them; a neighbour urging their representative to act, a voter trying to understand the decisions made in their name, or a campaigner seeking justice.

Often, this is through one of mySociety’s services. Millions of people every year rely on our tools to understand, question, and influence the decisions shaping their lives and their communities. In 2025 alone:
* 1 million+ reports were made on FixMyStreet
* 2.5 million+ people visited debate and MP pages on TheyWorkForYou
* 150,000+ FOI requests were submitted on WhatDoTheyKnow
* 158,000+ messages were sent via WriteToThem

Behind every one of these numbers is someone who felt able to take action, and another whose generosity made it possible.


** Help others to act
------------------------------------------------------------


** The commitment of our supporter community keeps our services free, independent, and accessible to all.
------------------------------------------------------------
It’s people like you who help others to act, and move us towards a better, stronger, more inclusive society.
Thank you.


** Drive meaningful change
------------------------------------------------------------


** Donations power our tools and enable people to have a say on issues affecting their life and community.
------------------------------------------------------------
Misinformation, mistrust and disengagement are eroding the foundations of our democracy. When people can’t tell what’s true, or don’t trust those in power, our shared systems begin to fracture. And, sadly, those who most need a voice will be the first to lose it. Can you help us change this?

** Deliver real impact
------------------------------------------------------------


** One person’s generosity. Another person’s voice. A stronger society for all. What a gift to make this Christmas!
------------------------------------------------------------


** Unwrap the truth
------------------------------------------------------------

“I uncovered vital information about the Post Office scandal.”

WhatDoTheyKnow is our Freedom of Information tool that lets people uncover truths about the forces affecting our lives.

Your support helps us reach more people like Eleanor, who used WhatDoTheyKnow to uncover new facts around the Horizon scandal, helping to bring justice for Sub-Postmasters.


** Support to speak up
------------------------------------------------------------

“We filled councillors’ inboxes with passionate messages”

WriteToThem makes it easier for people to speak up. It provides a way to contact the politicians who represent you, even if you've never taken such a step before.

Your support will help more people find and use the site — like the local Plymouth residents who turned to the service when their much-loved city centre trees were due to be cut down.

Have a wonderful festive season,
