A really lovely service this afternoon organised by Monmouth Town Council, at Monmouth Shire Hall, to commemorate Armed Forces Week.

A chance to give thanks to all those that have served, laid down their lives and to those who are still serving in our Armed Forces.

I was delighted to attend NFU Cymru's celebration of Welsh Food and Farming Event and the launch of their 'Framing the Future for Next Generations'

We have some of the best produce in the world in Wales and we must do all we can to lay the foundations for future farming in Wales. 

I met with individuals from South Wales East that have been affected by Motor Neurone Disease themselves. 

I found out how they are now actively creating awareness of this cruel disease. 

I will continue to do what I can for MND suffers in the region. 

It was great to meet Royal College of Nursing to discuss the needs of and challenges facing nurses in the Welsh NHS. 

It was very interesting to be presented with their new report on 'Caring for Older People', which focuses on the need to recruit more care workers in this sector. 

I had a great day in London. 

I had a good meeting with our secretary of state for Wales, David TC Davies MP. 

Massive well done to the Knight Family, Raglan Festival Committee and all volunteers, musicians, local businesses and groups that made 'Raglan Music Festival' such a success!

David TC Davies MP, the Secretary of State for Wales, and I abseiled down the St Cadoc’s Church Tower in Raglan, Monmouthshire, raising money for 1st Raglan Scouts' Italy 2023 trip.  

I had a fantastic visit as Shadow Education Minister to the impressive Bryntirion Comprehensive School in Bridgend, with local MS, Dr Altaf Hussain. 

It was great to visit the fantastic HMS Cambria, that played host to the Senedd Cymru Armed Forces and Cadets Cross Party Group, chaired by Darren Millar MS.

It was lovely to meet three wonderful young carers and to hear their stories. It is incredible what they have achieved at such a young age. 

This meeting made clear to me that we need to redouble our efforts to ensure that these unsung heroes have the support and respite they need.
