UK support for Ukraine's essential services

[your address]

Dear [name of your MP]

I’m writing to you with urgency because I’m concerned about the people in Ukraine facing yet another winter without reliable electricity, heating and water. I would hugely appreciate your support for urgent assistance to help keep hospitals, water supplies and communal heating working.

Accounts from people across Ukraine describe daily attacks on the services and places civilians depend upon. Strikes on energy infrastructure leave homes, hospitals and public services without reliable electricity, often disrupting heating and water supplies as well, while constant drone and missile attacks on residential buildings force families to seek shelter in the middle of the night.

The UK has already provided generators and funding for emergency energy repairs, but the scale and urgency of the situation mean that we need to respond much more quickly.

Please urge the Government to act quickly to help keep Ukraine’s electricity, heating and water systems functioning throughout the winter. This practical assistance must be matched by sustained diplomatic efforts to deter further attacks, uphold international law and secure accountability for the harm caused to civilians.

I would be grateful if you could raise these concerns directly with the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and ask what further action it plans to take. I would also appreciate hearing your own position and receiving any response from the Government.

Yours sincerely,

[your name]
