During #WorldImmunizationWeek , I attended an event hosted by APPG on Vaccinations for All in Parliament focused on ‘The Future of Vaccines.’

As a nurse who returned to the front line to deliver vaccines during Covid, I know first-hand the critical role vaccines play in combating diseases.

Last Thursday was World Malaria Day. I wrote a piece for ConservativeHome about my work as a member of the International Development Committee on this issue, as well as some reflections on my work as Mid-Derbyshire’s MP. You can read it here: conservativehome.com/2024/04/25/pau…

Yesterday, Sarah Champion, Chair of the International Development Select Committee, underscored the UK's collaboration with Unitaid to support local manufacturing of health products in Africa, a key step towards transforming healthcare access.
