A number of links on our web site take you off to some powerful resources provided by mySociety.org - What's it all about?
- mySociety runs most of the best-known democracy and transparency websites in the UK, sites like TheyWorkForYou and WriteToThem.
- mySociety is a not-for-profit company that builds websites of a democratic bent for other people, such as the No 10 Downing Street Petitions Website, for the Prime Minister's Office.
- mySociety is a community of volunteers and (paid) open source coders.

TheyWorkForYou tells you everything you could want to know about what your Member of Parliament gets up to in Westminster.
Uncover their voting record, read or watch their speeches on video, subscribe to email alerts when they speak - you can do it all with TheyWorkForYou.
A site where people can report, view, or discuss local problems like graffiti, fly tipping, broken paving slabs, or street lighting.
Nearly 25,000 problems have now been reported across the UK, with our users following up many thousands with updates, news and notifications that problems have been fixed.
WriteToThem is the only website in the UK you can use to contact any of your elected representatives. Enter a postcode and it'll tell you who all your local representatives are, and a bit about who you should contact for which reasons. WriteToThem has now been used to send over 650,000 messages, around half of which come from citizens who tell us they've never written to a politician before. Simple engagement, done right.
Want to know who your local government is awarding contracts to? How much is spent on advertising by the Police? What plans are in place for motorway upgrades near your house?
WhatDoTheyKnow can help you! This definitive Freedom of Information site will help you make Freedom of Information requests and read all about what other people have been asking, and what replies they've been getting. You can even subscribe to email alerts when other people ask about things you're interested in.
All of the above information is culled from the mySociety website: http://www.mysociety.org/. These links are provided for information only. There is no relationship between Wrekin and Telford LibDems and mySociety.
