As your local MP, my priority is always to support our community and I am here to help whatever your politics.

Over the last year, I have taken up thousands of cases – the highest number of cases since I was first elected in 2010 – on behalf of constituents, helping families and businesses access vital support throughout the pandemic.

It is really important to me that I hear from local residents about their views and priorities.

It’s not been possible to hold my frequent face-to-face coffee mornings, but I have moved to online events where residents can share concerns about anti-social behaviour, local NHS services and much more. Together with my team, I have continued to send out regular surveys to households right across our community, alongside online surveys to better understand how you feel about our area and how we can make it better still.

I am extremely proud to represent our area in Parliament and I will continue to work day-in, day-out on the issues that matter to you most and to campaign for our community.

If you need my help or support, or would like to share your views on any national issues, please get in touch:
