🗣 I held another of my regular advice surgeries in #MilbornePort on Saturday. Thank you to everyone who came to share their concerns. I’ll keep standing up for our community and making sure your voice is heard in Parliament. Please do get in touch if you’d like to attend a future surgery.

The day prior, I highlighted the Trussell Trust's work in Parliament, praising local projects, Bridging the Gap in #Glastonbury & #MilbornePort Foodshare too. We're indebted to these charities, but mustn't forget it's the job of govt to ensure no one has to turn to a foodbank as first port of call.
