I have received many emails from constituents concerning my voting record this week and would like to clarify the situation. I know people are getting frustrated with the endless votes and amendments and I hope this helps explain why I voted how I did.

Moorlands MP, Karen Bradley has hailed the UK’s public finances as reaching a ‘turning point’ following the Chancellor’s Spring Statement, with the independent economic outlook showing a "solid foundation on which to build Britain's economic future."

High streets have long been a place to bring communities together, a place for local people to access vital services and a place for businesses to thrive. But, the Government recognises that it is becoming harder for businesses on high streets across the country to compete with out-of-town shopping centres and online retailers.

I have invited many Government Ministers to Staffordshire Moorlands and was delighted when the Minister of State for Health, Stephen Hammond MP took up my invitation to visit Leek Moorlands Hospital last week.

Last week, the Prime Minister repeated the Government’s absolute focus: getting a good deal for Britain as we leave the EU. 

As a member of the Cabinet I have spent much of the last two years working to deliver on the result of the referendum. We are leaving the EU but we must do so in a way that protects jobs and opportunities for our children, in Staffordshire Moorlands and across the country.

Moorlands MP, Karen Bradley has welcomed DFID’s (Department for International Development) Small Charities Challenge Fund (SCCF), an exciting funding opportunity for small charities in Staffordshire Moorlands.
SCCF is the first DFID fund designed specifically for small British charities. It provides grants for development organisations with an annual income of £250,000 or less working in priority countries to deliver the Global Goals. Grants of up to £50,000 are available for projects of two years or less.

We have many fantastic Parks and green spaces in Staffordshire Moorlands that provide local residents a gateway to the great outdoors, a place to go for a jog, to walk the dog or simply grab a free moment away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.  

There has been a lot of talk recently about the consultation on the future of the Leek Moorlands Hospital and I urge everyone to have their say. Sadly the talk seems to be focusing on the issue of the hospital beds rather than the positive, exciting plans for enhanced services and better healthcare. 

Local MP, Karen Bradley was delighted to learn that RSPB Coombes Valley has been announced as one of the winners of VisitEngland’s 2018 Attractions Accolades recognising the quality of visitor experiences across England.
