"I am extremely humbled that people put their trust in me and voted to elect me as their Member of Parliament."

"It is an honour and one I will hold dear. I will not let the people of Upper Bann down. I did not make promises in my election literature that I do not intend to deliver on. I want to work with everyone to improve the lives of my constituents."


Christmas Baby Bank Appeal

In aid of local Baby Banks as part of three local charities - Storehouse Banbridge Community Foodbank, Lurgan Church of the Nazarene, and BabyBasics Mullavilly.


“These are difficult times for many families, and for many newborns, babies and young families. The cost of bringing a new life into the world can be difficult to manage particularly with all the added cost of the Christmas period.

 

I am seeking donations from the good people of Upper Bann to meet need within our community. Items being sought include: Nappies, Baby Wipes, Baby Wash, New Baby grows, New Baby Towels, New Baby Blankets, Knitted Cardigans, Knitted baby hats and Toiletry packs for mums. These items can be truly transformative to families in our area over the coming weeks.

 

Upon receipt of donations, these will be divided and given over to three amazing organisations who help many local people. These are Storehouse Banbridge Community Foodbank, Lurgan Church of the Nazarene, and BabyBasics Mullavilly.

 

Items can be left at my Lurgan Office on Queen Street, my Portadown Office at Datos Business Park on Armagh Road, and at Diane Dodds MLA office in Banbridge.

 

I thank everyone in anticipation of support for this appeal.”
