UK Parliament Week takes place annually in November and is an opportunity for younger people to learn more about our democracy.
I am delighted that this year, 38 organisations in Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner signed up to take part, from schools to care homes to volunteer groups. As always, I wrote to these organisations hear more about their planned activities and how I can help support those.
Today, I had a jampacked constituency day attending sessions at Pinner High, Newnham Junior School in Eastcote and Haydon School in Northwood Hills. I met with pupils to answer their wide range of questions – from my motivation to work in politics to the economy – and it was great to see so many young people engaged.
I was disappointed not to be able to attend the event with Ruislip Explorers, as well as the Eastcote Scouts. However, I did send a video to thank them for taking part, and I hope to be able to meet with these groups in the near future.
I am grateful to all for taking part this year.
