It is a real concern that already rated 'inadequate' last year, the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Probation Service might still be operating with only half the staff it needs.

Today, I asked the Minister for Care whether he recognised the clear contradiction between the Government's policy to bring healthcare out of hospitals and into communities as part of its 10 Year Plan, and the recent decision to withdraw funding for 40% of beds at Arthur Rank.

Today, alongside my Lib Dem colleague @charlotte-cane-mp.bsky.social MP, I visited the @arthurrankhospice.bsky.social saw the wonderful facilities, and met with Deputy CEO Sara Robins. The hospice is set to lose almost £1 million in funding next year, leading to a loss of 9 out of its 23 beds.

My thoughts today are with all those whose lives were brutally taken two years ago today, with their families, and with the hostages who continue to be held by Hamas.
Two years ago, we watched in horror those appalling scenes of Hamas’s evil terrorist attack on Israel.

I too am shocked and saddened by the horrific attack outside Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in Manchester today. That this happened on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, makes it all the more appalling.

I am utterly dismayed at the news that the Arthur Rank Hospice @arthurrankhospice.bsky.social, which provides such important care to people across my constituency, is facing a huge funding cut which could lead to it closing 9 out of 23 beds and increasing pressure on demand for hospital beds.
