I’ve been contacted many times over the years by constituents living with chronic pain. It’s a longstanding issue that affects people across Clackmannanshire and Stirling, and I know how hard it can be to access the right care and support.

Free nuisance call blockers are now available for vulnerable residents across Clackmannanshire and Stirling. I welcome this announcement — these devices will help protect people from nuisance calls and phone scams. It’s an issue I’ve campaigned on, so I’m pleased to see action being taken locally.

Illegal off-road bike use is putting lives at risk, damaging green spaces and causing serious disruption in our communities. A new campaign from Crimestoppers Scotland, backed by the Scottish Government, encourages people to report concerns anonymously. Find out more and report online 🖱️

Around 90,000 unpaid carers across Scotland – including many in Clackmannanshire & Dunblane – will receive an extra £293.50 this month through the SNP Government’s Carer’s Allowance Supplement. Payments made 18–19 June to those eligible as of 14 April.

Is the BBC still delivering for Scotland? At Holyrood's CEEAC Committee, I raised serious concerns over their “appalling” coverage of the Scotland v Greece match - no commentary, delayed start, poor production. Our national games deserve better.

I’ve written to McGill’s Buses, NHS Forth Valley, and the Traffic Commissioner to raise serious concerns over cuts to the H1 and H2 bus services affecting access to Forth Valley Royal Hospital. Many constituents rely on these routes to reach vital care.

Labour’s winter heating U-turn raises more questions than answers. They stripped support from pensioners, now say they’ll “reconsider” — but there’s no start date, no detail, and no clarity from Downing Street.

Great to meet with Matty from Sheep in Wolf’s Clothing — a Dunblane-based brewery with a strong social mission. They create inclusive employment for physically & neurologically diverse people and offer a welcoming, dog-friendly space. Find out more: siwcbrewery.com

RTS electricity meters will be switched off across the UK on 30 June. If not replaced, households risk higher bills and disruption to heating and hot water. Hundreds across Clackmannanshire & Dunblane still use these meters.

I’m proud to welcome the impact of the SNP Government’s Carer Support Payment across Clackmannanshire & Dunblane. Well over £1 million has been delivered to support carers in our constituency — recognising the vital role they play in our communities.

The SNP’s new Programme for Government will deliver for Clackmannanshire & Dunblane — scrapping peak rail fares, expanding GP access, and putting money back in people’s pockets through real cost of living support.

Since April, more unpaid carers in Clackmannanshire & Dunblane have become eligible for vital financial support. Carer Support Payment earnings limit raised to £196 p/w - a welcome increase based on carer feedback. This means carers can earn more from work without losing out on support.

Over 17,500 Baby Boxes have been delivered in Forth Valley since 2017, thanks to the SNP Scottish Government - giving every child the best start. Alongside the game-changing Scottish Child Payment, this support is vital as household bills rise in a Westminster-made cost of living crisis

In these volatile times, my government will act to protect workers and businesses - which is why I brought forward the Programme for Government from September to next week. We also need action from the UK government: 👉 Scrap damaging fiscal rules 👉 Rebuild EU ties 👉 Reverse the tax on jobs

Private George Alister Walker Ewan will be formally remembered in Dollar. His name will join others on the War Memorial — a lasting tribute to courage, sacrifice, and service. Proud to have supported efforts to ensure he is honoured.

Today @johnswinney.bsky.social announced extra funds to help keep Grangemouth’s skilled workers here in Scotland. Before the election, Labour committed to saving the site. It’s now time they stepped up and matched our funding...

Five years on from Brexit, my pledge is that Scotland will never go along with the toxic politics of Farage. Being in the mainstream of Europe, as an independent country, is our destiny.
