,----[ C-h f add-hook RET ]
| add-hook is a compiled Lisp function in ‘subr.el’.
| 
| (add-hook HOOK FUNCTION &optional APPEND LOCAL)
| 
| Add to the value of HOOK the function FUNCTION.
| FUNCTION is not added if already present.
| FUNCTION is added (if necessary) at the beginning of the hook list
| unless the optional argument APPEND is non-nil, in which case
| FUNCTION is added at the end.
| 
| The optional fourth argument, LOCAL, if non-nil, says to modify
| the hook’s buffer-local value rather than its global value.
| This makes the hook buffer-local, and it makes t a member of the
| buffer-local value.  That acts as a flag to run the hook
| functions of the global value as well as in the local value.
| 
| HOOK should be a symbol, and FUNCTION may be any valid function.  If
| HOOK is void, it is first set to nil.  If HOOK’s value is a single
| function, it is changed to a list of functions.

Set the LOCAL argument to t.  It should do the trick.
