Potholes are frequently mentioned to me in person, through my post and via email.
That is why I have been speaking to the relevant Ministers, County Councillors and Via East Midlands to see what can be done. See my latest update in this video.
I recently met with Men in Sheds UK in Parliament. A fantastic organisation focused on giving men the space to focus on men’s mental health and wellbeing. I was delighted to learn that their own CEO comes from Broxtowe!
Congratulations to Ey Up Mi Duck Charcuterie on being crowned the County’s best butchers by the Nottingham Post. I have been working closely with the business over the last year and I can attest to the fact that they are worthy winners.
I met with, Guy Opperman, the Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Roads and Local Transport. We discussed the roads within Broxtowe and the issues that have been raised regarding potholes.
I met with Compass Fostering at the Stapleford Jobs Fair. We discussed the fantastic work that fostering children involves, which can be a challenging but ultimately rewarding and life-changing endeavour.
Last week I took part in the ‘Partners Perspective’ Panel for the Birth Trauma All-Party Parliamentary Group. A series of Panels are currently underway to hear from individuals who have experienced birth trauma and discuss how we improve the ways we support such individuals across the UK.
