Dear neighbours,

I just signed the campaign: Curtain Call. Help make sure rental properties have curtains to hold in warmth for healthier homes.

It would mean a lot to me if you could also add your name to this important issue. Every name that is added builds momentum around the campaign and makes it more likely for us to get the change we want to see.

Will you join me by taking action on this campaign?

After you've signed the petition please also take a moment to share it with others. It's super easy – all you need to do is forward this email.

Thank you!
