Public gatherings in places like Saltburn are a recipe for disaster allowing coronavirus to spread like wildfire.

On Sunday I answered many of your Coronavirus questions during a special Facebook Live session.

Well, it was quite a night! Thank you to everyone who voted for me and Conservatives.

Yesterday I went to Daisy Distillery in Skelton. This is where Cleveland Way Gin is produced by Steve and his wife Gail, filled with the best local ingredients.

I met my constituent Luke Mason at my surgery recently to discuss the appalling injuries he suffered during a hit and run incident in Middlesbrough town centre in October 2017.

I want to provide an update this morning about Guisborough Hospital. There are several facts you need to know:

1) NHS South Tees Clinical Commissioning Group remains totally committed to the £4m redevelopment of our Hospital. There has been no change to their plan.

Thank you to everyone in Loftus, Saltburn, Hemlington and Coulby Newham for taking the time to talk today as part of my late summer constituency tour. A fun and interesting day!

Easington is a lovely village and Scarecrow Saturday is a true Bank Holiday tradition! It was great to join everyone to see the displays and to draw the raffle (and eat a few thousand calories in scones!).

Since my election in 2017 I have been proud to support the endeavours of hundreds of young people from across our area who have taken part in the NCS - National Citizen Service programmes.

Today marks the launch of a major joint campaign by Middlesbrough Mayor Andy Preston, the Leader of Redcar & Cleveland Council, Mary Lanigan, and myself.

It was great to be at the Riverside for the first home league game of the Woodgate era today! The second picture below shows the fantastic banner from Red Faction - Ultras Boro.
