I was delighted to present well-deserved Local Hero Awards to Toby, George, Alfie, and Evalyn. Thanks to their quick-thinking and bravery they manged to secure help for someone in need. Thank you to Ms Rees for inviting me to the school to recognise their great work.

It was great to meet the team at Happiness Horsebox and hear about their commitment to ensuring everyone has access to the countryside.

I am delighted that after much campaigning the Government is investing over £2 million to make the A420 safer and pay for some much-needed safety improvements.

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting these 2 constituents: John (103) represented our country at the surrender of Japan at the end of World War II and was the person who signed the surrender document.

I had a great couple of hours hosting a pop-up surgery at Tesco in Didcot, talking to constituents about everything from roads to immigration to special educational needs. It was nice to chat to everybody and I hope to see you at the next one.

One of the questions I’m always asked is, what is a typical day like as your MP?

This Friday was a good example and so I thought I would give you a look behind the scenes. 

I took the Environment Agency to Steventon to talk to them about the flooding we have seen across the constituency. It has been an exceptional period with the rainfall in February being 280% higher than normal.

Being an MP involves a lot of travel across my constituency.

We have many inspirational women across the constituency - far too many to celebrate in one post, but here are just a few of them on International Women's Day. Well done to them all.

As of this week I will have been the Minister for Children, Families and Wellbeing for 6 months.
