Inspired by the reduce reuse recycle mantra, I've been to the Wellow Church Garden Party and bought a new (to me) bin!

Blowing out the cobwebs with @parkrunUK - way too hot and maybe not my best plan (or time 😂)

My constituent Ketan Shah was tragically killed in last week's Air India crash, today I passed on my condolences to his family from the Chair.

Great to be back in Appleshaw for Sue's retirement party. Huge thanks to her for all she does for the community.

Interesting conversation with transportenvironment.org about zero emission trucks outside Parliament today - thanks to @welchtp for sending the truck!

Devastating decision by @NatWestGroup to close the branch in Romsey - insulting and ill informed to suggest the Cowes Banking Hub is an alternative for Romsey residents and to be unaware of @PostOffice plans to dispose of directly managed branch in Romsey.

Huge thank you to @HantsIWWildlife for championing chalk streams in Parliament today. Good to see so many colleagues from across the House attending

Thanks to all the volunteers at West Dean fete this afternoon - hope the PM's signed bottle got a good price in the silent auction.

Incredible to have a Spitfire fly past at West Dean village fete this afternoon, such an iconic sound.

Massive thanks to all the volunteers @parkrunUK in Romsey this morning - donning my @mndassoc tshirt and trainers for a quick 5k with my constituent Nick Smith

A privilege to meet the delegation from @ua_parliament yesterday and Deputy Speaker @Ole_Kondratiuk and to hear at first hand the realities of war

Broughton Village fete this afternoon - amazing lemon dribble and another tomato plant to add to the collection

Today is the @RomseyDAG dementia information day at the Crosfield Hall - well worth popping in to talk lasting power of attorney, @Specsavers home visits, Portioned 4 U meal deliveries etc

Wonderful afternoon at West Tytherley Fete, listening to Lockerley Silver Band and talking to residents

Lovely day for North Baddesley Village Day - so many great stalls and activities

Great to meet up with my constituent Nick Smith this am. Nick is raising funds for @mndassoc and today ran the Romsey Park Run, I'll be sharing more details on Facebook

It's #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek and we still haven't done enough to give people space to talk about their own mental health. Such an important part of this awareness week

For many men, talking about feelings is hard - and drinking becomes a way to cope. Research from @Drinkaware shows 58% agree alcohol is used to manage. 🎥 Watch Kammy and a group of men from Andy's Man Club talk about how opening up helped them 👉drinkaware.co.uk/talkdrinking

Today we celebrated the life of #FlorenceNightingale with the annual service at Wellow Church. Nurses from around the world come here to lay wreaths at her grave and commemorate a remarkable pioneer of modern nursing.
