Four games in a row scoring four & fourth in the league! Fantastic result and a one step closer to the top.

A great day for us and also to mark #3UP. Now let’s get out of this league!

Great day in the North! 🌱🚀

Proud to join Minister Chris McDonald, Lola McEvoy MP and Mayor David Skaith for the launch of the Bio-Industrial Cluster North — set to create 5,000 high-quality green jobs and power a cleaner, more innovative future for our region.💚🌍

They say dogs are a man's best friend, yet they are still used in experiments despite tech advances.🐕

Sadly animal testing laws haven't changed in almost 40 years.

Labour is launching a bold plan to accelerate progress.

A kinder, more compassionate Britain is within reach. 🇬🇧

I was extremely proud to honour York’s Armed Forces community in Parliament.

Whether it’s veterans like Lord Mayor Cllr Martin Rowley, or the new generation coming through - so well represented by the truly outstanding Able Cadet Joshua Mullinger.
We have the very best of Britain here in York.

🥸No better way to kick off a busy day than with a 5k run alongside colleagues - great chats, and all for an important cause.

Proud to support Movember and raise awareness for men’s physical and mental health!🙌

On Remembrance Sunday, we honour all those who gave their lives for our freedom.

It has been a privilege, as an MP, to meet members of our Armed Forces at home and abroad.

Today, we especially remember the men and women from York and beyond who have served with courage and dedication.

Great to visit the team at TSYS in York at their Fulford HQ!🏢

They’re not just providing great jobs - they’re building careers, supporting staff development and helping grow our local economy.

Great to see this kind of investment here in York.💼

Delivering for families!

I shared the story of a single mum from York who can now work more hours thanks to the 30 hours of free childcare being rolled out by this Labour Government.

It’s great to see this policy is delivering real change, and giving children the best possible start in life.🌹

Supporting men’s physical and mental health in York.

As men, we don’t always open up - but talking lifts the weight.

To the dads, lads & boys: you never have to go through tough times alone.

Big shout to Menfulness, Andy’s Man Club, Talk Club & Movember who are doing great work👊

Keep an eye out for it soon 👀

Fulford Community Orchard🍎🌳

Did you know this hidden orchard began more than a century ago, originally providing fruit for patients of what later became Naburn Mental Hospital - which once stood on this site before the Designer Outlet was built?

15 months of change.

But it’s more than that.

100 achievements.

Delivery. 🌹

Lovely to meet Hayley Patrick-Copeland at her “Knit & Natter” group, created in memory of her daughters, Alya and Aleah.

Families come together to talk and make tiny hats and gowns for babies lost before birth.

Hayley’s strength and support for others is extraordinary.

Park & Ride Revolution!🚍

Mayor David Skaith is making major improvements to Park & Ride in York - boosting services and making travel easier and greener.

Buses matter. They connect our communities.

So if you’ve got ideas on how to improve routes, reliability or access - I want to hear from you.👇

It was a real pleasure to meet Rob Harrison, President of the British Veterinary Association, and one of my constituents here in York 🐾

As a big animal lover myself, I enjoyed chatting with Rob about his work, and the amazing care Vets give to our pets and animals every day 🐶🐱

Now it’s time to grab your pumpkins and get carving… 👻🎃

It was great to visit The Hub - a safe, welcoming space where people can drop in for a chat, a cuppa ☕️, and support with their mental health and wellbeing!

The team do incredible work creating a community where no one has to struggle alone.

Big boost for Haxby!🚀

Great catching up with Sarah and Chris - both leading brilliant projects right here in Haxby🌟

Thanks to Mayor David Skaith’s High Street Fund, these projects will bring more life, colour and community spirit to Haxby’s high street.🛍️

🌹From early years to education, Labour is making sure every child gets the best start in life.

Great to speak with Bridget Phillipson MP, Secretary of State for Education about the difference our government is already making for families in York and across the country!

🕯️ During #BLAW I spoke in Parliament about the pain so many families face - and about Hayley, whose courage in honouring her daughters Alya and Aleah helps others know they are not alone.

For every bereaved parent, that love never fades.
