Had a fantastic afternoon visiting Haberdashers’ Hatcham College recently, where I had the privilege of engaging in a discussion with KS3 and KS4 students about a range of local and national issues - from our justice system to the redevelopment of Lewisham Town Centre.

Loved seeing John Stainer Community Primary students perform in the Music for Youth Proms at the Royal Albert Hall last night. Supported by MFY Accelerando & the Neville Abraham Foundation, they showcased incredible talent & energy in the choir beside other schools. #MFYProms2025

Enjoyed my first Culture, Media & Sport Select Committee oral evidence session on protecting built heritage today.

Thank you Ms McFarlane & team for welcoming me!
