It was fantastic to hear from the Culture Collective last week about Kirklees’ Culture Strategy at the lovely new ‘AMPED’ venue.
Culture is so important for our communities, and it is vital that we continue to support and celebrate the sector.

I recently met with the Minister of State for care to discuss palliative and end of life care in Kirklees.
I know how important our incredible local hospices are to our community and I will continue to work alongside local colleagues to press the Government for sustainable support.

I was delighted to attend The Kirkwood for the handover of funds raised by Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh UK at their recent Holi celebrations. It was a privilege to meet those involved and to celebrate contributions being made to such a meaningful cause.
