Exciting to see the Christmas lights up in Heswall! They look great – fantastic work all.

Great to hold another of my weekly surgeries.

If I can help you, a friend or a family member please get in touch at matthew.patrick.mp@parliament.uk

Great to meet students from Liverpool John Moores University!

It’s always exciting to welcome students from my old university to Parliament – it was great to hear about their studies and answer their questions about life as an MP.

🆕 Half a million more children will get access to Labour's free breakfast clubs next year – boosting parents' work choices and children's life chances.

I've written to eligible schools across Wirral West to encourage them to join the scheme.

Balanced out my Barbetta's salad with some chips! Highly recommend it.

Here’s an example of just one of the cases my team and I have helped with recently.

As always, if you need support on an issue, please get in touch with me and my office on matthew.patrick.mp@parliament.uk

Tomorrow’s Women Wirral do important work to support women facing domestic abuse.

I was proud to nominate them to receive more than £6,000 of Omaze funding recently. It was great to see how that money is supporting women on the Wirral.

It was a privilege to lay a poppy stake on behalf of Wirral West in the House of Commons remembrance garden.

We will remember them.

The pink lights look great! I saw the hard work that goes into getting these lights up - great job, all.

Your hard work and dedication makes our town look lovely every year.

Was out in Heswall just before it started to rain 🌧

Climate Change, NHS improvements and some local issues came up. Was great to speak to someone I had managed to help directly.

Have a great weekend, all.

This Labour Government is committed to preventing homelessness across the North West, by providing immediate support for children and families in temporary accommodation.

I had a special visit to Elderholme Care Home where I met with staff and residents.

The work the staff do is amazing. The support they provide for people during difficult times is inspiring.

Thank you for having me, I loved having the chance to sit down and hear everyone's stories.

Really pleased to bring my street stall to Tesco in Heswall, talking to people about a range of issues.

Thank you to Tesco for having me, and thanks to everyone who stopped to have a chat.

I recently met with Merseyside’s Chief Fire Officer to visit their world class training facility. I was delighted to find out that here on Merseyside we have the best rescue service in the world!

Thank you to everyone at Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service for the work you do keeping us safe.

Great to hear that Clatterbridge is one of the Community Diagnostic Centres which will be opening on evenings and weekends.

This will mean people get appointments more quickly – helping to secure a faster diagnosis and getting them the treatment they need.

Congratulations to everyone getting their GCSE results today!

Congratulations to everyone getting their results today!

This week I took my street stall to Pensby, speaking to people about a wide range of issues in the glorious Wirral West sunshine.

If you need to get in touch, you can find me at one of my street stalls or email me at matthew.patrick.mp@parliament.uk

Another new business opens in Hoylake – great to pop in and see C.M. Triggs Fishmongers on their opening day.

Local businesses selling fresh, local produce – you love to see it.

Good luck to everyone involved. If the first day is anything to go by, you won’t need any luck!

I was grateful so many business owners gave up their evening to talk through the challenges and opportunities ahead.

I hope their upcoming meeting with the Council leadership is fruitful so that our small businesses thrive.

Thanks for having me. I look forward to working with you.

Small businesses are the engine of the Wirral and our high streets. That’s why I was so pleased to join the Heswall and District Business Association to discuss how we can work together to support small businesses.

Today I was in Thornton Hough for one of my coffee mornings, speaking to people about the issues that matter to them.

It was a really lovely morning, thank you to everyone who came and had a chat with me.

Delivering news for the Woodchurch this morning.

Good conversations with people whilst out and about - including about the leisure centre.

The positive things we’re doing to help people don’t often make it into our news feeds, which is why I think this good old fashioned work is important.

Both Wirral St John’s and Claire House provide such invaluable support in our community for people with life-limiting conditions and their loved ones.

I’m so pleased that this Labour Government has allocated such important funding to our hospices – it will make a real difference.

Summer 'blitz' on town centre crime and antisocial behaviour in West Kirby Shoppers and businesses in West Kirby will see increased police patrols and local action to tackle town centre crime this summer

You can find out more here: www.wirralglobe.co.uk/news/2530326...

We’re delivering increased police patrols and stronger prevention and enforcement action from the council and police – changes people have told me they want to see.

I will continue working to ensure that other pockets of antisocial behaviour across our area are addressed.

I have been working and campaigning locally to tackle the blight of antisocial behaviour, so I’m pleased to see that West Kirby will benefit from the Government’s summer crackdown initiative.

In Hoylake, Scottish Power has a major training centre to help their apprentices go on to have excellent careers.

Steve Rotheram and I recently went to see the training in action and discuss Scottish Power’s role in delivering good jobs and clean energy.

For too long, transport in areas like ours was neglected, and people have been left struggling to get around.

I’m really pleased to see this Government investing in the Wirral – delivering a new train station, better busses and fixing our roads.
