Liberal Democrats see the best in things. We celebrate diversity - and non-conformity and if something isn't working we try to fix it or we fight for reform. We are committed to representing local people and making sure your voices are heard.

I have had an extremely busy week with Summer Safari dates, visits and events, and a few meetings thrown in for good measure!
With Parliament in recess, I’m enjoying more time in the constituency, reminding myself why I am so proud to call this area my home.
