Dear TD / Senator,

I am writing to ask you to use your influence as a TD/Senator to help bring blood sports to an end in Ireland.

As one of your constituents who is opposed to animal cruelty, I wish to see you working towards outlawing the blood sports of foxhunting, hare coursing, carted deer hunting and mink hunting.

(Add in your personal feelings about blood sports here - perhaps outline the cruelty of blood sports, how animals suffer and how blood sports are out of place in a modern, civilised society.)

Thank you. I look forward to your positive response.

Yours sincerely,

Name/Location
(If you are writing on behalf of a group of people, ask everyone to sign the letter)
