And encourage other firms to follow the example of Coodes Solicitors, based in Cornwall, in offering pro-bono legal advice to my constituents. 👇

🚨 Around 260 prisoners have been mistakenly released over the last year alone. That figure is absolutely shocking. 😳
With the latest high-profile cases in the news over the last few weeks, the Government NEEDS to get a grip on this urgently. ⏳

☕️ A great end to the week talking to residents in North Petherwin at my latest ‘Brew with Ben’ event. Some excellent questions from the sewage scandal to SEND, local housing and our rural transport challenges.

🚨 Cornwall CANNOT be left behind again from lack of funding.
With Andrew George MP and Cornwall Council Leader Leigh Frost, I've written to Chancellor Rachel Reeves urging the Government to confirm a replacement for the vital Shared Prosperity Fund (SPF) before it expires in March.

⛪️ MUSEUM FUNDING IN CORNWALL: We can't be left out! 🚨
Cornwall’s museums bring so much educational, historical, and community value to our towns.
But too many (like Bodmin Keep - Cornwall's Army Museum) are really struggling to survive at the moment. 👇👇

Some of these are among the most deprived in the country - yet not a single town in Cornwall was chosen to receive any of the Government’s ‘Pride in Place’ funding. 👇

Too many of my constituents have been stung by dodgy developers, who've gone bust and left entire developments - and communities - without the promised sewage or road works.
