5 ACTIONS TO STOP THE NHS CORPORATE TAKEOVER BILL! ⏳
The government is trying to force through its Health and Care Bill - a set of deeply damaging reforms that would bring American-style healthcare to the NHS. In reality, this bill is an NHS Corporate Takeover Bill. Critical votes on the reforms are expected in a matter of weeks - so we need to take urgent action to protect our NHS.

We’ve also created a guide for how to respond to your MP if you get a reply from them.

📞 Phone your MP 📞
Whilst MPs get thousands of emails every week, they receive far fewer phone calls. This is an important chance for you to be heard as a constituent with views they need to listen to - you’re far more difficult to ignore on the phone.

✍️ Push the petition ✍️
We’ve already had over 16,000 signatures on our petition against the NHS Corporate Takeover Bill.

You can help grow the petition by sending our pre-made WhatsApp message to 5 friends, or by printing out some of our flyers and distributing them in your local community!
📰 Contact local press 📰
MPs really care what gets said about them in the local paper - so a story about their position on the NHS will get their attention and help pressure them into voting the right way. We’ve created a handy guide for securing local media coverage on the NHS bill - click below to check it out!
