Today I have been busy making change happen in our community. It was a pleasure to welcome Caroline Spelman, Shadow Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government to Chippenham. We visited RISE and met the team who do such excellent work supporting local people.
We then went on to Bird’s Marsh where I was delighted to share the news from Wiltshire Council that there is to be further consultation before any decisions to build on Bird’s Marsh are taken. I am delighted to have been able to help the situation and ensure that people in Chippenham are listened to.
After visiting Lackham College, I went on to help plant trees at Fitzmaurice Primary School, in Bradford on Avon as part of the Trees for Schools project in conjunction with Mark Wilkinson furniture.
The evening was then spent at St Andrew’s Church, Chippenham for a hustings event where again, I made sure the audience got to ask the questions!
Thank you to all the volunteers out today helping across the constituency.
