School visits are one of the best things about my work in the constituency and I particularly enjoyed speaking to Year 4 pupils at Wicklea Academy this week. This came after they’d written to me about St Anne’s Park, expressing concerns about dog mess (and a lack of bins) and litter, and the need for better facilities.

We had a good talk about the problems they’d identified on their walkabout in the park and about who in Bristol might be able to help improve things, from the Mayor and council to the Friends of St Anne’s Park Group – with, of course, me trying to nudge things along and having a word with Rishi Sunak and Michael Gove!
