Today I raised social mobility in the British Army. I asked about number of serving officers that attended a state school and plans to increase the proportion.

The Minister acknowledged the role of our armed forces in social mobility. I'll write to him and get an answer on numbers.

During Defence questions, I asked the Minister for Veterans to assure the House that Northern Ireland Veterans would take priority in upcoming legislation due to their age and impending legal action.

Disappointed with response from Minister, will continue to press.

The community reserve volunteer program from the British Red Cross matches volunteers to those in need, a service which could be crucial at times like these.

I registered this morning and encourage everyone who can support this initiative to sign up.

It was a pleasure to attend the Citizens Advice reception today.

Their dedication helps turn around lives in our area and across the UK.

Often when the future looks bleak, this service supports vulnerable people through difficult times.

Thank you for all the work you do.

Well done to the Wild Place Project 'Bear Wood' for being shortlisted in the Outdoor Innovation category for The Climate Coalition #GreenHeartHero Awards.

Met with Bristol, North Somerset & South Gloucestershire CCG today

Had an update on the Corona virus (COVID-19) and was reassured with the local plans in place.

Also discussed a range of health service matters affecting our area.

During International Trade questions, I asked if Ministers agreed that Freeports attract significant foreign investment whilst regenerating communities and creating jobs.

Today I spoke in a debate on housing and planning.

Due to the failure of successive governments in recent decades, we haven't built enough homes for people and must build many more than the Government's plan.
