Deeply troubling that a man was rushed to hospital after a stabbing on Tyburn Road in Pype Hayes. My thoughts are with the victim & their loved ones. This violence has no place in Erdington. If you have information, please report it to @WMPolice. birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-…

Today at @CommonsHealth, I pressed the Health Secretary, @wesstreeting on the 10-year NHS Plan. With past strategies failing to shift care into communities, embrace digital tech and focus on prevention, what would be different this time?
A fantastic evening celebrating Black healthcare professionals at the @cahn_uk #BlackHealthcareAwards! 🥳🎉 It was an honour to present an award and speak about the remarkable contributions of Black healthcare heroes. A huge congratulations to all!

Great to meet Andy from Birmingham City Council Planning today for a walkabout on Erdington High Street. Regeneration takes teamwork, and by working with partners, we can attract investment and make Erdington a thriving destination again!
Another part of my work in Parliament is on the Modernisation Committee, where we’re exploring how to make the House of Commons accessible to all, regardless of background, ability, or circumstances. Democracy only works when everyone can have their say, no matter their needs!
