☕️🎆 Thanks to everyone who joined my ‘Coffee with Claire’ in Stoke Gifford today on firework regulation changes. We discussed their role in celebrations and their impact on a wide range of people, including those with PTSD, working shifts and more, and pets. I’ll take local views to Ministers.

A positive - if slightly soggy! - morning knocking on doors and listening to fellow residents in Charlton Hayes with this great team. As you can see(!) we do this all year round, come rain or shine. Thanks to all who took the time to speak with us. Stay dry if you can today!

On Friday, I shared my Mum’s impossible bind & lack of real choice in the late-stage of her terminal illness. I voted for the Bill to proceed for further consideration, but this was not the majority vote, this time. I respect different views & appreciate fellow residents sharing theirs with me.

Having met local bereaved military families & written to the Minister to call for this, I’m very pleased to see it happening. This builds on free travel for serving personnel & veterans for Remembrance. This will help more bereaved military families get to events & be with the wider forces family
