Another busy and fully booked surgery in Felixstowe yesterday with local Councillor Mike Deacon, supporting residents on a wide range of issues health and social care, ASB, banking hubs and much more.

Lovely to hold an advice surgery in sunny Reydon last night - lots of important things talked about, and lots for my team and I to do. Thank you to everyone who came in to chat, and for sharing some quite personal stories.

Just before summer recess, I launched my School Road Safety Petition - calling for a dedicated road safety plan for every primary school in Suffolk Coastal.

C.A.R.N.I.V.A.L  people!

I want to hear from you about your experiences with local bus services - whether it’s a route you rely on, one that’s been cut, or a “ghost route” that no longer runs.

Last week I invited Newtide Homes (part of Flagship) out with me and my casework team to join me door knocking in Felixstowe on a few roads where there are quite a few Newtide residents.

Out knocking on doors and talking to residents today in #Leiston - thanks to everyone who spoke to me and my volunteer team. We managed to finish just as the rain arrived - talk about good luck!

☕ This morning I held another coffee morning - this time in Yoxford. It was great to meet with nearly 50 residents, talking about what matters to them – Sizewell C, road safety, connectivity and rural issues in general.

Yesterday I was pleased to attend and speak at the Harwich Clean Energy & Maritime Summer Reception, bringing together maritime businesses, port users and energy leaders from across Harwich, Felixstowe and the wider eastern region.

Last week, Anglian Water discharged 41 HOURS of sewage into the River Deben, between the waterfront and Melton. As a result of the discharge, E.coli levels were 30 TIMES the recommended levels.

Last week, I met with residents in Thorpeness to discuss the urgent impact of coastal erosion, which has claimed 5 metres of coastline in just 6 weeks.

🚌 I’ve launched a new survey on local bus services - because too many rural communities in Suffolk Coastal are being left behind.

Last week I officially opened my new constituency office in Felixstowe - delivering on my commitment to make sure people across Suffolk Coastal can access help and be heard.

I had a brilliant visit to Melton Primary School and Nursery yesterday, and spoke about the SEND issues the school is facing, and had a brilliant tour of the school - led by the excellent Student Council. Thanks for having me!

I recently visited Coldfair Green Primary School and had the pleasure of spending time with the students and staff. It’s always inspiring to see young people so eager to learn and engage with the world around them.

🚊 Join me TOMORROW to shape the future of Trimley Station. I’ll be chairing a public meeting to explore exciting possibilities for Trimley Station.

I recently visited Aldeburgh Primary School Avocet Academy and had the pleasure of taking part in their morning assembly. It was fantastic to see so much curiosity and enthusiasm from the students - so many brilliant questions.

🚜 Are you a resident living in a rural area? The Labour Rural Research Group wants to hear from you.

Out this morning in a very sunny Felixstowe, chatting to lots of residents about issues including SEND, roads and potholes, and a lot more besides. Lots of case work to follow up with, and lots of conversations I'll take back to parliament.

A lovely way to spend the morning on Suffolk Day - with residents in Bucklesham and Newbourne - talking about all the local, regional and national priorities that matter most to residents.
