Find Out About Your MP
Aside from WriteToThem there are a group of other useful sites for finding more information about your MP's policies, campaigns, and voting patterns.
TheyWorkForYou - "is a non-partisan, partly volunteer-run website which aims to make it easy for people to keep tabs on their elected and unelected representatives in Parliament, and other assemblies." - The most comprehensive source on the web giving you access to a wealth of information on your representatives
HearFromYourMP - "If you enter your details, we'll add you to a queue of other people in your constituency. When enough have signed up, your MP will get sent an email. It'll say "25 of your constituents would like to hear what you're up to. Hit reply to let them know". If they don't reply, nothing will happen, until your MP gets a further email which says there are now 50, then 75, 100, 150 — until it is nonsensical not to reply and start talking."
