Today I attended the Stockport Local Plan consultation drop in for Bramhall and Cheadle Hulme South area at St Michael's Church, where I had the chance to talk to residents and the Leader of Stockport Council, Cllr Alex Ganotis.

I was delighted to judge at Bramhall Scarecrow Festival again this year and to support the Purple for Polio campaign. Thank you to Bramhall & Woodford Rotary Club for organising the festival, and I look forward to supporting this event again in the future!

It was great to drop in at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Fun Day today. Events like this provide a great way for children to get out and play and for communities to come together. Thank you to the Church for organising the day!

It was great to attend Cheadle Mosque Open Day again this year along with the Mayor of Stockport, Cllr Linda Holt. This is always a fun event and it was wonderful to see the community come together.

It was great to cut the ribbon at the launch of the extended premises at Crissan last night. All the best to Ann, Jill and Trudi!

For many people, Summer is a chance to pack your bags and get away from it all for a few days.

Today I met with a local resident and Council officers to discuss Gatley Green and ways to tackle the ongoing traffic issues.

This morning, upon hearing that travellers had moved from Brookfield Park to Park Road Football Field, my office contacted Caroline Simpson, Corporate Director at Stockport Council to ask what action was being taken to evict them.

I welcome news that more than £1,812,483 of National Lottery money has been invested in Cheadle’s heritage projects since 1994.

Recently, I had the chance to speak to a group of over 60 young people from Stockport who were taking part in the National Citizens’ Service (NCS) programme.
