Wirral West has cried out for positive and meaningful change. That job starts now. Thank you for giving me the honour to be your Member of Parliament. I will not let you down.

Today I was in Thornton Hough for one of my coffee mornings, speaking to people about the issues that matter to them. It was a really lovely morning, thank you to everyone who came and had a chat with me.

Delivering news for the Woodchurch this morning. Good conversations with people whilst out and about - including about the leisure centre. The positive things we’re doing to help people don’t often make it into our news feeds, which is why I think this good old fashioned work…

Both Wirral St John’s and @ClaireHouse provide such invaluable support in our community for people with life-limiting conditions and their loved ones. I’m so pleased that this Labour Government has allocated such important funding to our hospices – it will make a real…

I have been working and campaigning locally to tackle the blight of antisocial behaviour, so I’m pleased to see that West Kirby will benefit from the Government’s summer crackdown initiative. We’re delivering increased police patrols and stronger prevention and enforcement…

In Hoylake, Scottish Power has a major training centre to help their apprentices go on to have excellent careers. Steve Rotheram and I recently went to see the training in action and discuss Scottish Power’s role in delivering good jobs and clean energy. I am proud we have…

For too long, transport in areas like ours was neglected, and people have been left struggling to get around. I’m really pleased to see this Government investing in the Wirral – delivering a new train station, better busses and fixing our roads. Read more of my thoughts in…

No one should feel uncomfortable using a public swimming pool, but sadly too many do. I’ve been in ongoing discussions with the council, but I want to demonstrate the strength of feeling in our community for getting a privacy screen for the West Kirby Concourse pool. These…

I was really pleased to visit St Bridget's C of E Primary School to meet students and talk to their Headteacher Mr Le Feuvre about the work they do. I'm meeting schools across Wirral West to discuss how I can support them and their students. Thanks to everyone at St Bridget's…

Today I took my petition for a privacy screen at West Kirby Concourse to the streets, speaking to people in West Kirby about why I think this is important. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to have a chat with me.

It’s been a busy first year as your Member of Parliament. Thank you to everyone who has contacted me with their thoughts and concerns. If you need to get in touch, please email [email protected]

Best of luck to England Women who start their Euro 2025 campaign today, especially Wirral West’s Niamh Charles! We’re all rooting for you ⚽

Good afternoon from the Woodchurch. You name it, we discussed it! The NHS, ASB, pot holes, immigration, education, transport. Was great to have so many conversations about the issues that matter to people. Have a great weekend, all!

In just one year, this Labour government is fixing the foundations to build a stronger Britain. With people from across Wirral West, I’m working hard to bring the improvements our area needs. Some highlights from Labour’s first year in office ⬇️

Without nurses, there is no NHS. Together, with the profession, we’ll build an NHS fit for the future and a bright future for nursing, too. ✍🏻 ahead of the launch of the 10 Year Plan for Health 👇🏻 inews.co.uk/news/politics/…

I had a great time with Stephen Morgan, Minister for Early Education at Ganney’s Meadow School, where children and teachers are turning grey spaces into green spaces through the National Education Nature Park scheme. The government is investing £3 million for the scheme, to help…

Compensation for the victims of the infected blood scandal is not only about money, it's about closure. We must ensure that the process is swift and transparent, so more victims are able to get the redress they deserve.

I was delighted to open the new borehole at Hoylake Allotments. The new borehole allows for running water to be brought to the site for the first time in its history. I had a great time taking a tour of the grounds and talking to allotment holders about what this means to…

Young girls in our community have highlighted to me their experiences using the West Kirby Concourse swimming pool, being made to feel uncomfortable because passers by can see in. I’m calling on Wirral Council to add a privacy screen, so everyone feels welcomed, comfortable…
