Coronavirus

virus

My heart goes out to everyone in our community at this time of crisis, especially those at the frontline of the medical response, those most at risk of illness and those worried about their work and family. My office is continues to be in contact with a vast number of people, organisations and interests across the constituency and we are working hard to help everyone.

Eastbourne has stepped up to see the town through. Our dedicated public servants - whether they be medical professionals, teachers or volunteers - have been incredible. Our vaccine roll out continues at pace and has helped save countless lives, and protected our NHS too. The booster programme is underway and more information can be found on the following pages. 

Although coronavirus restrictions have ended following Step 4 of the roadmap as we head into winter the situation may change. Please do check this for the most up to take information, the main government information portal.

I will do whatever it takes to support our town as we seek to recover from the pandemic. I will work to answer constituents’ concerns and relay and amplify their voices within government. I will always champion our town. 

Think of your family, think of your neighbours, think of others at all times.
