Stronger partnerships, innovation and long-term planning can help build a more profitable, productive and resilient farming sector. Enjoyed answering the National Trust’s questions for their latest ‘Land Matters’ magazine.

Was helpful to visit QA’s Emergency Department to meet the Emergency End of Life Response Team who work with others in our community and Rowans Hospice. The caring and dedicated team has supported over 300 people to avoid an admission or return from hospital and die in the place of their choice.

Great to visit the Nunsthorpe Community Shop and see how it's helping local families access affordable, good quality food. Our Good Food Neighbourhoods Programme will support more community-led projects like this across the country.

The Warm Homes Plan is already making for Portsmouth people like Malcolm and Donna, bringing down the cost of living for those who are most in need in our community whilst improving sustainability across the UK.

Dartmoor is a unique landscape and a working one, which is why meeting the farmers and commoners who keep it working to hear what matters to them is so important. We’re turning the Fursdon Review into action, working with local partners to deliver real change on the ground.

At NEWway, I saw firsthand how sharing a meal can open the door to housing, employment, health and community support. It's an inspiring example of how community food projects can strengthen communities, improve lives, and build local resilience. 🌱🤝

Sagal Abdi-Wali will be a strong local voice for every community across Holborn and St Pancras in Parliament. Fantastic to join the campaign trial today ahead of the by-election on Thursday 8 October, with our brilliant candidate, Sagal 🌹
