Tell your MP to stop the killing of children in Gaza.
Mothers’ Manifesto is joining War Child UK and a powerful coalition of organisations - including ActionAid UK, Amos Trust, Anti-Slavery International, Choose Love, Christian Aid, Doctors of the World (Médecins du Monde UK), Greenpeace, Humanity and Inclusion, and Oxfam - in urging the public to write to MPs and demand they do everything in their power to stop the killing of children in Gaza.
The suffering is unbearable. Thousands of children have been killed, injured, or are facing starvation. A devastating 93% are now at risk of famine.
As Mothers’ Manifesto, we stand strongly against the use of food as a weapon of war. No child should ever go hungry as a result of political violence. Gaza is the most dangerous place in the world to be a child, and our hearts break for every life lost and every family torn apart.
How to get involved
By emailing your MP, you’ll be taking part in Red Line for Gaza - a growing movement demanding immediate action. After you send your first message, you’ll receive an email every Sunday with a new letter to send, helping to keep up the pressure on those in power until the killing ends.
It takes less than a minute to act. TAKE ACTION NOW.
MOTHERS MANIFESTO Join Us in Ending Child Hunger
Any and all donations are so appreciated and will go toward building our campaign.
Your support would allow us over the next year to:
Support travel and expenses to give talks and host meetings around the country
Enable us to support a greater diversity of mothers to participate in our actions
Build further networks with other groups and organisations
Finance administrative help to assist the campaign
Continue to meet with MPs and have further meetings within Parliament.
We stand in unity and solidarity with all those struggling to feed themselves and their children.

We will not stop until there is immediate action to prevent the unnecessary crisis of food insecurity.
Our key demands are:
MAKE SURE ALL CHILDREN IN THE UK HAVE ENOUGH TO EAT
IMPLEMENT GLOBAL POLICIES OF CARE
INVEST IN SUSTAINABLE FOOD SYSTEMS

MOTHERS HUNGER STRIKE
On Mothers Day 2023 and 2024, our group of 8 Mother's went on hunger strike for 5 days. We spoke with press, the public and politicians, raising awareness of the food security crisis and highlighting our demands.

“No child should be hungry, no child need be hungry if we only assume our urgent responsibility on inequality. Climate change is accelerating this crisis and we need to address it now. These brave women striking in solidarity with mothers should be listened to in the U.K. and around the world.”

“Because I know women really struggling to raise their families because they are getting a raw financial deal from this government. These women cannot take any more. This is why I’m supporting and I urge you to support this too.”

“It’s got to be the politicians who get together and start putting the future of humanity and indeed the future of all species on this precious planet as their number 1 priority. Rather than bank rolling fossil fuel companies who are destroying our future.”
