Today I asked the Prime Minister what more the government is doing to support access to treatment for endometriosis. I've heard from many women in Colchester who have endured ongoing pain and trouble getting help.

The Women's Health Strategy is committed to making it easier for women to get faster diagnosis and treatment and I'm following up with local services to see what more we can do to locally to make further improvements.

I was delighted to welcome pupils from Roach Vale and St Michael’s schools this week to the Children’s Parliament event in Westminster.

This is an initiative inspired by the late MP Sir David Amess, designed to place primary school children at the centre of democracy.

Today I joined local and national campaigners on endometriosis in Westminster for the launch of a new report - Endometriosis (Not) in the Workplace.

No one should have to choose between managing their health and building their career. And we need to do more to ensure workplaces are supportive to women with endometriosis and other menstrual health conditions.

I’ll continue to work in Colchester and in Westminster to ensure we are providing the necessary support to women to lead full lives.

Today I hosted the team from St Helena in Parliament to share the great work they are doing. We joined other hospices and Members of Parliament to discuss the innovative ways they are working in Essex and how we can make changes at a national level to support palliative and end of life care. A really positive day hearing about the important work they do in our local community.

It was a pleasure to visit Essex Sight and learn more about the fantastic work they do supporting blind and visually impaired people across Colchester and Essex.

For more than 100 years Essex Sight has been supporting people with sight loss, and today provides information, advice and guidance, community activities, home visits and support through Colchester Eye Clinic.

As well as their Colchester base, Essex Sight runs a pop-up sight centre at Colchester Library every Wednesday from 10am–1pm, and a coffee morning at Level Best Café on the first Tuesday of every month from 10am–12pm.

Thank you to Jonathan and the team for such a warm welcome and for taking the time to tell me more about the important work you do in our community.

Calling Colchester’s community groups! 📢

There’s a new funding opportunity available for organisations working to bring people together and strengthen their communities - great news.

The Common Ground Award offers funding for voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations, which can be used towards improving community spaces, facilities and equipment.

💷 £20,000 to £50,000 for individual organisations
💷 £100,000 to £250,000 for groups working together

Volunteer and community groups are the cornerstone of our city. If you run or volunteer with a community organisation here in Colchester, please take a look at this opportunity and see if this could help support your work.

My team and I are working with the DWP, Essex Youth Service and others to set up a new in Colchester to help young people get into work, volunteering, education or training.
On Friday, we went to visit the Brighton Youth Hub (see photo) to learn from their very valuable experience over the past six years.
We’ll be sharing insights with the youth organisations in our group who will help to shape the Colchester offer in the coming months.
Many thanks to all at Brighton Youth Hub for their time and generosity.
