It was an honour to join the Mayor, veterans, councillors, schoolchildren, cadets, emergency services, local businesses and residents on Plymouth Road to mark Armistice Day.
Together, we paused to remember the courage, sacrifice and service of all those who gave so much for our freedom.

A wonderful visit to Batchley First School. Such an impressive, caring and inclusive school — a real credit to Mrs Downes, the brilliant staff & Chair of Governors Steph Heighway. Loved seeing the new library 📚 and even joined a game of Connect Four on the playground!

On World Stroke Day, I called for urgent action to improve stroke prevention, rehabilitation and recovery.
With nearly 2,000 stroke survivors in Redditch and the Villages, access to vital therapies like physio, occupational and speech therapy remains far too low.

As the Member of Parliament for Redditch and the Villages, I was honoured to place a cross in the House of Commons Garden of Remembrance.
This simple act of remembrance is a moment to pause and reflect on the courage and sacrifice of all those who have given their lives in the service of others.

Proud to back the urgent national call for a targeted prostate cancer screening programme.
Prostate cancer is England’s most common cancer - yet it’s the only major one without a national screening plan.
