Every Disabled Child MattersThe Every Disabled Child Matters campaign has set a target of 25,000 supporters by July. With two weeks to go, we need 5,000 more.Help us meet and beat our target. Please send this message on to your whole email address book, to your company, your school or to any other email lists that you are on. Ask everyone you know to sign up at http://www.edcm.org.uk - and then pass this message on to their own address books. Please be creative in who you send this too! We want everyone to sign up - whether they are directly involved with disabled children or not, everyone can and should be a supporter of EDCM. The rest of this email explains why this matters. Campaigns need supporters. Numbers matter - 1.8 million people signed a petition to the Prime Minister to oppose road pricing. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/6381153.stm Since our launch last September, 20,000 people have signed our petition to get rights and justice for every disabled child. It's a great start, but it's not enough. Your support counts. Without our supporters, we would not have been able to persuade the government to invest £340 million more in disabled children's services, or make disabled children a priority with a new national target. With every new supporter we add to the campaign, our chance of making real change happen increases. It takes a second to help make every disabled child matter.
