This afternoon, I joined my friends Ian and David at Bristol Parkway Station in support of the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Appeal. Grateful for the continuous generosity of our community. We Will Remember Them
It was great to attend The Poppy Launch at Bristol Parkway Station today was well supported by serving members of the armed forces, veterans, local volunteers from the Stoke Gifford Royal British Legion, and scouts groups.
I recently met with Roads and Local Transport Minister Richard Holden MP to discuss how we can bring about a solution to the reduction of local bus services which many children rely on to get to school in our local area.
Last night, I attended the Office for Veterans’ Affairs event in Parliament. It was an honour to meet with veterans and hear inspirational stories from recipients of the Prime Minister’s Points of Light Award.
Thank you to Patchway Studios - great to meet Sam Glover and Monty Till. It was great to learn about the film productions there and their upcoming plans for expansion.
Great to tumble down the rabbit hole at the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party on Saturday in Patchway. Hats off to Jan, our very own Queen of Hearts, for organising this brilliant charity fundraiser for Bristol Creative Therapies C.I.C, What a wonderland of fun!
Fantastic morning, first I attended the monthly Bristol North Combined Armed Forces Veterans Breakfast Club at the Toby Carvery in Bradley Stoke.

Met with some of the Rolls Royce team today in Patchway. We discussed the timings of any future changes and consultation. I was grateful to receive a briefing on the Tempest jet fighter. I'm confident the Patchway plant will continue to grow and go from strength to strength.
On Saturday afternoon, I visited Park Row Synagogue in Bristol. I met with their Rabbi and members of the Jewish community. I made clear my support for the people of Israel; their right to defend themselves; and offered my help and unwavering support.
