This week we delivered the last of the 15,000 Suffolk Coastal magazines, giving an update on my work in parliament and in the constituency over the past few months.

Thanks to everyone who came along to my fully booked advice surgery in Leiston last night. We covered a whole range of the usual - and some not quite so usual topics.

If you’ve been in Felixstowe lately, you may have noticed that the signs have gone up at my new constituency office on Hamilton Road.

Earlier this week I met with Ukrainian families living in Suffolk Coastal - to hear more about the realities of war in Ukraine, and the importance of supporting the efforts to stand up to Russia.

A brilliant day at the Suffolk Show - celebrating everything that makes our County so special, from local food, farming and livestock, to crafts, rural businesses, military displays and so much more.

Yesterday I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Rebecca, who has just moved into her first home with her son, in Martlesham. Her home is a brilliant example of good quality, affordable housing, built to help local people either get on the housing ladder through shared ownership, or get an affordable home to rent through Hastoe Housing Association.

Another Saturday surgery complete in Felixstowe and grateful to have Cllr Mike Deacon joining me today - talking to residents concerned about SEND, housing, public toilet issues, and a whole host of other casework issues that my team and I will be picking up on Monday.

I recently visited the The Long Shop Museum in Leiston to learn more about its incredible industrial heritage and renewed importance to the local area. This site helped to shape national (and even international) history through innovation in engineering and manufacturing.

Lovely to drop into the Grassroots Festival at Eastward Ho! in Felixstowe today. 167 teams from across Suffolk all playing over the Saturday and Sunday - what an amazing festival of sport and community.

What an amazing VE-day celebration in Woodbridge today. The town at its best, and such a privilege to hear the stories of VEday from the voices of Woodbridge residents.

It was an honour to be invited to the official opening and ribbon cutting of the new playpark in Reydon last week.

Today we can unite to remember and honour the bravery, sacrifice, and resilience of those who fought for our freedom.

A moment for poignant reflection today at #Felixstowe #veday80 torch event. Remembering all those who gave their lives in WW2. 112 torches to commemorate the 112 lives taken from Felixstowe.

It was a real pleasure to welcome the Mayor of Felixstowe, Felixstowe Town Council, Level Two Youth Project and the Bürgermeisterin (Mayor) of Wesel to Parliament this week.

I recently attended the Dementia Awareness Roadshow at Yoxford Village Hall — a fantastic community event bringing together local organisations dedicated to supporting those living with dementia, their families, and carers.

I recently attended the opening of the new temporary banking hub in Leiston — a vital step in supporting our community as Leiston’s final bank branch prepares to close on Friday 2nd May.

I've submitted an appeal to LINK to overturn their decision that denied Felixstowe a banking hub, following the closures of Santander and Halifax.

Lovely to join Litter-free Felixstowe this morning for a litter pick, and an excuse to walk off my excess Easter chocolate consumption...! Great to see so many, of all ages, out and getting involved.

This week I visited the Job Club at the Salvation Army Felixstowe, Church and Community Centre, a fantastic event that’s held regularly to support people into work.

🏖️ In East Suffolk, the tourism industry is worth an estimated £693million. I flagged the importance of the industry in our region to Minister Chris Bryant MP who reiterated the need for us to make sure it is not just cities that are the focus for the targeted 50million international visitors by 2030.
