A very good meeting yesterday with West of England Combined Authority Mayor Dan Norris. We discussed the ongoing challenges with the bus services in the area, primarily driven by a lack of bus drivers.
Supporting local GP services by meeting the management team at Coniston Medical Practice who have exciting plans for capacity expansion and are prioritising Face-to-Face appointments as the future of GP care, very impressive.
Today, Jack took a brief break from work to go walking up in the Brecon Beacons with an old Army friend.
Commenting afterwards, Jack said:
I hope you all manage to get some time this August to relax with family and friends.
It was lovely to drop into St Peter’s Community Coffee Shop in Filton earlier. Great to catch up with residents and talk about some of the local issues which I am helping with. The coffee shop is open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 10am to 1pm.
Today I met with Gavin Richards and his team at Stoke Gifford Medical Practice who are working hard to meet high demand and thanked them for everything they are doing. I will be supporting the managed expansion of the surgery in relation to the new homes in our area.
