27 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryThis Government's commitment to the School Breakfast Club Program is making a real difference to local children's lives by giving them a better start to the day and giving families real support amidst the cost-of-living crisis.
27 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryIt was fantastic to visit Barmston Primary School in Washington on Friday morning, to see their Breakfast Club and meet with staff and students.

23 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI am proud that our renewed women’s health strategy will put women and girls at the heart of our healthcare system. Under this Labour government, women and girls will no longer feel ignored or invalidated by those meant to listen. 🧵(1/2)
14 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryEvery child deserves food that fuels them to learn and grow.
14 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryWe're scrapping high-sugar and deep-fried food from school menus, putting more fruit, vegetables and wholegrains on every child's plate, and launching a new national enforcement system so these standards actually stick. This is one piece of a much bigger jigsaw, but it's an important one.
14 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryYesterday we took the biggest step to overhaul school food in a generation – and I couldn't be prouder. 1 in 3 children are leaving primary school at risk of food-related ill-health. Tooth decay is the leading cause of hospital admissions for children aged 5–9. That is simply not good enough.
9 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryIt was great to speak with both the children and the workers, and to hear more about Gateshead's HAFplus app and the Nutritional Education recipe boxes they are currently using.
9 Apr 2026Cost of LivingcelebratoryI had a lovely time today visiting some of the Holiday Activity and Food programmes in Birtley, to see how the children of Gateshead can spend their Easter holidays making friends, getting some exercise, and not worrying about food in the meantime.
9 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryIt was great to hear about their path to their apprenticeship, how it works in practice and their hopes for their future with Asda. I wish them the very best for their futures.

7 Apr 2026Crime & PolicingcelebratoryNeighbourhood policing was hollowed out under the Tories, with communities like Washington and Gateshead South left without the support we need. So, this is a landmark day: we’re putting officers where they belong - on the beat, and tackling crime.
7 Apr 2026Crime & PolicingcelebratoryTarget made, target hit. Today, Labour has announced that over 3,000 additional neighbourhood police are now in post. And we’ve hit that goal 2 months early.
1 Apr 2026Jobs & EmploymentcelebratoryToday’s boost to the National Minimum Wage and the National Living Wage will give a much needed pay rise to 2.7 million workers. 💷
1 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI have long supported, and worked with, them from the backbenches and it is therefore an honour to be able to continue this work with them as Minister for Public Health and Prevention.
1 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryTarget Ovarian Cancer are doing fantastic work to advocate for greater awareness of symptoms to ensure earlier detection, faster diagnosis and higher survival rates.
1 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI am proud of the progress made by this Government so far to tackle waiting lists so that less ovarian cancer patients are left waiting too long for a diagnosis and treatment.
1 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI was proud to drop-in to an event last month, hosted by Target Ovarian Cancer, to mark Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. As Minister I am absolutely committed to improving cancer care for patients across England, including those suffering from ovarian cancer and other gynaecological cancers.
27 Mar 2026Economy & Jobs (General)celebratoryThis meeting allowed businesses to ask questions, raise concerns, discuss key challenges or opportunities, and suggest priorities for the Chamber to take forward in the future. It was lovely to see the engagement of these local businesses and to be able to speak with all involved.
27 Mar 2026Economy & Jobs (General)measuredI today held a Chamber of Commerce area meeting in Washington and Gateshead South alongside the North East Chamber of Commerce. This meeting was attended by businesses and employers across the local area to discuss the issues that matter most for the north east.
27 Mar 2026Health & NHSmeasuredTo start, this fund will benefit the loved ones supporting cancer patients, throughout their cancer diagnosis and treatment.
27 Mar 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI was able to see their facilities and to also hear about their launching of a Community Fund which will be used to provide free, high quality mental health support for the community and those who do not have the means to access private therapy.
27 Mar 2026Health & NHScelebratoryToday I was very happy to visit Lighthouse Therapy Group in my constituency of Washington and Gateshead South. Lighthouse Therapy Group is a private counselling practice that are committed to supporting the mental health of our local Washington residents.
