More Mental Health Funding

I was very happy with the further investment announced for mental health funding across the country, with Norfolk and Waveney due to directly benefit from the money This is an area that I've campaigned on tirelessly, to ensure our services receive the investment they need I was incredibly proud when I managed to persuade the local NHS to support mental health clinics at Cromer hospital, offering much-needed care to people in North Norfolk

Clifton Park - Cromer

I'm sure many were considerably concerned when the news broke about the land clearance at Clifton Park in Cromer An area which presumably was home to many species of animals and plants and cleared, as I understand completely without professionals first assessing the site. I was quick to act on this, writing almost immediately to North Norfolk District Council, The Norfolk Wildlife Trust, and the Environment Agency My letter has been seen by the Chair of Natural England and the case is being looked into further.

We missed out on Levelling Up Money

I am very disappointed that NNDC have lost out on four consecutive Levelling Up and Community Renewal Fund bids I have written to the council expressing my views and want us to plan now, to find ambitious and imaginative projects that will win government approval. I had wanted the important Holway Road/A149 roundabout to be included in the bid which would improve safety on one of our main roads and ease summer congestion I have subsequently met with the road’s Minister to take this forward.
