We are sure many of you are all suffering from the new set of restrictions imposed on the UK in terms of demand for your products and services. 

The new set of business support mechanisms announced by the Chancellor to replace the Job Retention Scheme are also not adequate to support the thousands of businesses in the UK print industry, and specifically the business-to-consumer sector, in the face of these renewed challenges.

We are a member of the Graphics and Print Media Alliance, which published findings last week fed by IPIA data that showed more than 3,000 businesses in our sector will go under before Christmas without targeted help for print.

Please see the joint statement that was written to the Government as a result of these findings. 

If you feel it is appropriate to your situation, we now need your help to shine a light on this issue and secure action by writing to your MP and requesting representation on this issue. 

We have created a template letter for you to download and edit as you wish to send to your MP, and immediately below links to instructions on how you can identify and write to your MP, by both email and posted letter if at all possible please.
