Breakfast clubs give children a nutritious start to the day alongside time with friends. For parents, it means fr

Happy South Asian Heritage Month! Uxbridge and South Ruislip is home to a large and proud South Asian community. This month is a time to celebrate the culture and contribution of South Asian communities across the UK. From starting local businesses, to caring for patients in our hospital and educating our young people. A huge thank you to the South Asian community across our constituency for all that you do!

Very exciting! I joined representatives from Uxbridge College and the Department for Work and Pensions for the pre-launch of the new Youth Employment Hub coming to Hillingdon. We heard firsthand from young people about the difference programmes like this make, discussed how the hub will proactively reach out to young people who might not come forward themselves and the approach of the new hub. More to come on this very soon ✨

Hillingdon Alliance of Residents' Associations has launched a petition about changes to the Council's Residents' Petition Scheme. The proposals would increase petition signature thresholds and remove automatic public hearings. Petitions are one of the last ways residents can collectively raise concerns with the council. After refusing to attend public meetings, making it harder to call the council or see people at the Civic Centre – it feels like more of the same and anything

NHS West and North London have launched a six week campaign giving residents the chance to share their views and help shape how local health services are planned and delivered. You can inform them on: ✔ what works well ✔ what could be improved ✔ how you’d like to get involved Take their short survey here: https://northwestlondonnhs.uk.engagementhq.com/embeds/projects/50031/survey-tools/57967

The Government has opened a consultation on Heathrow expansion and I would encourage every resident in Uxbridge and South Ruislip to have their say. I will be honest, I remain sceptical that expansion can be delivered without significant consequences for our community that have not yet been properly thought through. Pressure on the Elizabeth line, local roads, noise, air quality and the local environment are not abstract concerns in my constituency. They are the reality of da

A VAT loophole is leaving NHS patients at risk of losing access to life-changing medicines through the Early Access to Medicines Scheme. Bayer has already withdrawn and other pharmaceutical companies are reconsidering their participation. For patients with life-threatening conditions who have exhausted all other treatment options, the consequences are devastating. As Chair of the APPG on Access to Medicines and Medical Devices, I’ve raised this in Parliament and with Minister

I have signed a joint letter to the Prime Minister and Home Secretary calling for a compassionate and transparent policy for refugee students and the evacuation of scholarship students from Gaza this year. The constant delays and lack of communication have hindered the process for far too long.

After months of work with local organisations, this Labour Government has confirmed that they back my proposal for Hillingdon to have a NEW YOUTH EMPLOYMENT HUB - dedicated to helping our next generation access job and employment opportunities. This Government knows how important it is to act to get more young people into rewarding, stable work to help build their future. Now our work together with Uxbridge College, the Job Centre, NHS & local businesses continues to make it

The most recent immigration statistics show the scale of change since Labour took office. Net migration down 82% to 171,000, asylum hotel use down by 35% and small boat arrivals down 41%. The numbers speak for themselves.

The Chancellor has announced a temporary VAT cut from 20% to 5% on children's entry to theme parks, zoos, museums, cinemas, soft play and theatres during the school holidays. Children's meals in restaurants and cafes are also included. Great news for families this summer!

Extremely pleased to see that NHS waiting lists have fallen to their lowest level in 3.5 years, with over 312,000 fewer people waiting for treatment compared to last year. This is the largest year-on-year reduction in 16 years, with the number of people waiting more than a year dropping by almost half. After years of record waiting lists under the Tories, this is great progress and a testament to the hard work of NHS staff across the country. Alongside this, ambulance respons

Earlier this year I sponsored a Dogs Trust event in Parliament highlighting a shocking gap in animal welfare regulation. Rehoming organisations across England, Wales and Northern Ireland remain unlicensed with no inspection regime. I have written about why that needs to change and what a proportionate system of regulation would look like.

Labour’s Renters’ Rights Bill means stronger protections for 85,961 private renters across Hillingdon. Ending no-fault evictions, banning rental bidding wars, capping upfront rent to one month and limiting rent increases to once a year.

Since being elected in July 2024, my team and I have been taking a range of actions to tackle town-centre issue, from pressing for increased police resources and tougher national rules on shoplifting and mobile phone theft, to working with TfL on fare evasion and transport improvements. I recognise that there is still much to be done to make our town centre the best it can be. It is important for me to continue listening to residents. As a result of this, I arranged a drop-in

Pleased to see that under Labour, the number of patients waiting for treatment is down. After years of record waiting lists under the Tories, this is real progress and I look forward to seeing it continue.

Welcome news in Hillingdon! The Government has closed eleven asylum hotels and returned them to local communities, with more closures coming this spring. This includes the Holiday Inn Heathrow in Hillingdon. These closures will save taxpayers nearly £65 million a year, with overall asylum costs already down by nearly £1 billion since this Government took office. This is part of the Government's plan to end the use of asylum hotels entirely this Parliament.

Hillingdon is receiving £2.8 million as part of Labour's new Experts at Hand SEND service. Experts at Hand brings specialist professionals directly into local schools to support children with SEND - educational psychologists, occupational therapists and speech and language therapists all available closer to home.

Really pleased to hear that HRUC, the further education college serving Uxbridge and South Ruislip, is receiving over £4.6 million to repair and upgrade its college buildings. This is part of Labour's £1.7 billion investment to modernise further education colleges across the country, and great news for students in Uxbridge and South Ruislip. Better facilities mean better spaces for our young people to learn and succeed.

When this Government said we were going to fix the broken SEND system — we meant it. Thrilled to announce a boost of over £5 million to support specialist school places in Hillingdon
