SAVE THE DATE 📅 Next Saturday I will be holding a campaign launch leafleting session. The aim is to distribute my launch leaflet to every resident in the new Prudhoe North with Wylam Ward. That’s around 2000 leaflets! Many hands make light work and I would love your help.

This month we're in Northumberland for #TheFoodConversation. With farming forming a critical part of the local economy, we're looking forward to hearing from Northumbrians about how food connects us & what needs to change. @Joe_Morris91 @NikJohnsonCA thefoodconversation.uk
