2016

I was delighted to meet young disabled people at the House of Commons who told me how volunteering has made a difference to them by developing their skills and raising their confidence through ‘Can Do’ workshops, community projects and mentoring.

I support the ‘Save our Community Pharmacies’ campaign as Government figures shows that up to 3,000, a quarter of all pharmacies, could close.

I support the call for a guarantee in the Autumn Statement for the Government to fully fund its promise to offer 30 hours free childcare per week.

On Thursday 17 November 2016, as Shadow Leader of the House, I started Business questions by calling for the Government to announce the forthcoming business.
