Since her by-election in 2021, Anum has stood up for our local communities across Airdrie and Shotts. She has championed workers rights, fought against child poverty and stands up for Scotland.
We want to see Anum re-elected to continue strong SNP representation at Westminster, and ensure that Anum is the last MP for Airdrie and Shotts as Scotland moves towards gaining her independence.
The campaign
After 14 years of disastrous economic mismanagement from the Tories, and no real alternative from Sir Keir Starmer's Labour Party, we have the the opportunity to tell the Westminster Establishment that enough is enough. Local SNP members are gearing up to help Anum with her re-election. Our local campaign will be funded by branch funds, but we also need your help to win and to finance the best campaign possible.
What do we need money for?
Our members and activists are fantastic campaigners, and they are working hard to get Anum's message out, but we need your help please and help us win this constituency for Anum and the SNP.
You can donate any amount, no matter how small or large, every leaflet we are able to print and constituent we are able to reach counts. We know money is tight for many at the moment, but we are grateful for any donation and it does make a difference.
These are some of the major campaign expenses we need to fund:
- Running a campaign hub – We will be opening our campaign hub from which we’re running our operation, but we need to pay for rent, internet and energy amongst other costs. Help us keep that campaign hub running right through until Thursday 4th July.
- Campaign literature - In the next few weeks we'll leaflet the entire constituency a number of times with campaign literature. It's really important to get accurate information out to voters and to make it easy for them to get in touch with Anum and the local SNP team.
- Letters to voters - While the purpose of leafleting is to ensure a blanket delivery of information across the constituency, writing letters to voters is all about targeted communication and following up on contacts we have made before. Our campaigners have already contacted many thousands of electors across Airdrie and Shotts, and will contact many more in the run-up to polling day. It's very important to stay in touch with those voters, so we follow up the initial contact with personally addressed letters.
- Posters & other material - We want to give window posters, car stickers, and badges to any supporter that would like to show their support. A good display of window posters and a high profile ensures everyone knows there is an election on and encourages SNP supporters to get out and vote.
So these are the kinds of things we are asking you to help fund. Fighting a really good local campaign requires money and we want to fight the best campaign possible to re-elect Anum to Westminster as our MP for Airdrie and Shotts.
Please dig deep!
