It’s been a busy year representing you, both here in North West Leicestershire and in Westminster. From fighting for fairer pensions for our former miners to pushing for the best start in life for our kids, it remains a real privilege to serve our community.

Meeting you across the constituency remains my favourite part of the job. Whether it’s on the doorstep, at constituency surgeries, at community events, or at local businesses, listening to your concerns and delivering on the priorities that matter to you is what drives me every day.

Since becoming your MP, I’ve received more than 55,000 inquiries and comments, and that’s before I even consider my social media engagement! Responding to your requests for help and championing North West Leicestershire will always be my top priority. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to get in touch.

I promised to be accessible, and I’ve kept to that commitment by holding more than 30 constituency surgeries and knocking on thousands of doors throughout the year, not just at election time. Whether supporting residents affected by flooding or meeting parents of children with SEND needs, no issue is too big or too small if it matters to you.

Alongside this, I’ve continued battling for better buses in the face of service cuts, pushing for a rail connection to help people travel more easily, and taking on the challenge of sewage pollution affecting our waterways, and in some cases, even our streets.

As we look ahead to 2026, I’ll continue working hard to listen, support, and stand up for our communities. I’m committed to ensuring it remains a wonderful place to live, work and visit and that’s something you can join me in too.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have been working through the festive period and those who are on duty over midnight to keep everyone safe.

If you need any support or just want to have a chat about something that matters to you, please contact me via [email protected], call my office on 01530 569 010 or by post at 109 Belvoir Road, Coalville, LE67 3PH.

Wishing you all the best for a happy and prosperous 2026. ... See MoreSee Less

Huge Congratulations to Rob Nixon on his CBE in the New Years Honours list.

It was great to be able to work with him some 20+ years ago and then again when he became the Chief Constable until his retirement. A career dedicated to policing and a thoroughly deserved award.Congratulations from Leicestershire Police to our former Chief Constable Rob Nixon who has been awarded a CBE in His Majesty the King’s New Year Honours List.

The honour, which is for services to policing and criminal justice, recognises Mr Nixon’s 32-year career in the force as well as the national role which he took on in 2023 as the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) lead for criminal justice.

Speaking today, Mr Nixon, who retired from his roles in March 2025, described the news as “deeply humbling”.

Reflecting on the recognition, he also paid tribute to “exceptional” colleagues and partners who he has worked alongside.
