After speaking to businesses and constituents in Broxtowe I raised our concern regarding the removal of the 1-hour free parking at Broxtowe Borough Council’s car parks with Broxtowe Borough Council on 22 January 2024 and received a response on 6 March.
Two Years ago a constituent from Beeston, Aaron, came to speak with me at a surgery in Stapleford. He told me that his wife, Bernadette, had tragically passed away in childbirth and he had not qualified for leave from work as he had not been there for the required length of time.
This week I caught up with the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Roads and Local Transport, Guy Opperman MP. As a Member of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Cycling and Walking, I attended their annual showcase.
I had a great time at the weekend attending the Ambigai Chariot Festival at Nottingham Sir Thurkkai Amman Temple in Beeston Rylands. Thank you to all those who helped organise what was an incredibly special local event.
I brought the Secretary of State for Transport to Beeston Station to meet with Friends of Beeston Station and look at the work being done on our new lifts!
I spoke in a Westminster Hall Debate on Flooding, the clip can be found above. In Broxtowe we have been affected severely by recent floods, specifically Babet and Henk. Both businesses and homes have been affected.
Over the weekend I took part in a charity football match in support of the Poppy Appeal. As a Veteran and a member of Eastwood & District Royal British Legion, I was delighted to be able to support this worthy cause.
