Arnos Grove Post Office 10 Year Celebration

I attended a wonderful celebration today at Arnos Grove Post Office to mark 10 years of Murtaza and Erdal Gok as postmasters.

They truly go the extra mile for our community and I was very pleased to thank them for all they do. If you’re in the area, pop in to see Murtaza and Erdal!

Visit to Palmers Green Post Office

This morning, I visited my local post office to see Perry, the postmaster. It was great to catch up, and discuss the valuable contribution post offices make to our community and the range of services they can offer.

The Government are currently considering the important feedback from their ‘Future of the Post Office’ consultation and I look forward to reading the response. You can keep updated with this here.

North Mid Sickle Cell and Thalassemia Centre

On New Years Eve, I joined the Chief Nurse for London, Karen Bonner MBE, to officially open the sickle cell and thalassemia emergency department bypass unit at North Middlesex University Hospital. 

I want to thank those who played a huge role in making this bypass unit possible, improving care and securing better outcomes for patients who present to the emergency department with sickle cell disease and thalassemia.
