I had the pleasure of joining Burgess Hill Mosque, spending time with & chatting to members, after their Friday Prayers. A humbling experience to witness prayers and devotion, love, and commitment to faith. This is such a special & poignant time for the community, & it was lovely to join a special lunch afterwards with our great local councillor, Cllr Mustak Miah, his family & friends. Thanks for such a special insight and for the viewing of the new space for women they are building.
It was great to join the ‘Taste of Derbyshire Dales’ event in Parliament with the fantastic Sarah Dines MP. It was brilliant to see the exhibitors and discuss how we can further support our hard-working small UK businesses and promote tourism. It shows the power of exhibiting at the House of Commons. I’m thrilled to confirm following the success of my second 'A Taste from Across Mid Sussex', I will be hosting a 3rd in early September showcasing our hard-working small businesses. If you have any new and exciting products you'd like to launch – what could be better than launching in Parliament with a huge audience!
After meeting with my constituent, Robert from East Grinstead, I wanted to share the importance of testing for Hepatitis C that affects the liver and can be life threatening, especially as you may even have it without knowing. During the acute phase, the first 6 months, most people show no symptoms. However, during the chronic phase they can include jaundice, fatigue, loss of appetite, fever, & star-shaped vein patterns developing on the swollen belly. Please don't hesitate to order a free home kit now, even if just to put yours & your family’s minds at rest.
Our local vineyards are stunning such as Kingscote Vineyard, where we had an amazing tour of the grounds, wine tasting and a mouth-watering lunch in a magnificent event venue. I highly recommend visiting this breath-taking venue as this is one of many great establishments locally which are well worth a visit and a chance to enjoy some local tourism following English Tourism Week.
