As a local MP during this most critical time for our country, I believe I have three key responsibilities when carrying out my duties:

2. Disseminating and signposting Government information and NHS guidance.
3. Supporting local leaders with the response on the ground here in Norfolk.
Please see my latest video above:
And latest advice and guidance here.
