Armed Forces Day
It was an absolute privilege to mark Armed Forces Day at events in both Enfield and Haringey over the weekend. The contribution of all our armed forces personnel cannot go unnoticed, and it was a honour to remember and recognise their sacrifice.
Both events involved fantastic parades and shows of support, followed by speeches to the community. We must remain committed to ensuring that serving personnel, veterans, military families and the bereaved are treated fairly and recognised for the contribution they make.
Thank you for your courage and commitment on this and every Armed Forces Day.
Visit to Brookwater House Care Home
It was an absolute pleasure to visit Brookwater House Care Home and spend time with both residents and staff for Care Home Open Week. Care Home Open Week is an important opportunity to recognise the vital contribution of the social care sector, hear directly from those working in care, and celebrate the positive impact care homes have on residents, families, and the wider community.
During the visit, I saw firsthand the range of activities, social events, and support on offer, helping residents remain active, engaged, and connected while feeling safe and at home.
I received a very warm welcome from everyone at the home and was even pleased to join in on a birthday celebration during the visit! The dedication, compassion, and professionalism shown by the staff were clear to see, and I would like to thank them for the outstanding care they provide every day.

The RecordShop
It was fantastic to visit The Record Shop in Wood Green to meet both Mary and Aaron.
By offering free studio time to young people looking to pursue music, this local studio provides opportunity and a space to grow for talented musicians in our area.
As Chair of the APPG for Music Education, it was great to get stuck in. Here’s hoping I’ll be invited back to record an album…
