Dear [insert candidates name]
As a [insert your constituency name] constituent I am asking you to sign the NUS Funding Our Future pledge: I pledge to vote against any increase in fees in the next parliament and to pressure the government to introduce a fairer alternative.
Any increase in the cap on student fees would intensify the financial pressure me and my family are facing in this economic climate.
You can sign the pledge now (it only takes 30 seconds)

I hope you will seriously consider signing the pledge and showing your support to the students of [insert town/city].
Yours sincerely,
