Cutting costs and supporting local families
Last week in my column, I wrote about the importance of patience in politics and how real change often takes time. But while long-term change matters, people also rightly want to see practical improvements in their everyday lives now.

That’s why services like Thr1ve Youth Social Prescribing are so important. They provide one-to-one support for young people aged 14–18, and up to 25 for those with additional support needs, helping them build confidence, connect with their community and access the support they need.
A huge thank you to everyone involved in delivering this valuable support for local young people. 💙

I’m delighted that Macclesfield Road has officially reopened following a huge £2 million investment and a major civil engineering project to rebuild the hillside and make the road safe once again. 🚧
This has been an enormous effort involving more than 10,000 working hours.
The project has also supported local businesses, with 4,300 tonnes of aggregate stone and gravel sourced from local quarries, while sand removed from the site has been sold on to local firms.
Alongside rebuilding the hillside, works have included:
✔️ Improved drainage
✔️ New fencing to help prevent fly tipping
✔️ 18 road patches repaired between Blaze Hill and Bakestonedale Road
✔️ New cats eyes and road safety improvements
Some trees had to be removed as part of the work to improve drainage and stabilise the area.
The road will continue to be regularly inspected and monitored over the coming months, with temporary traffic lights in place at times while further checks are carried out - but don't worry this will only be for a short amount of time.
Thank you to residents, businesses and drivers for your patience while these vital works were completed. ... See MoreSee Less

On Saturday 13th June, Norfolk Square will come alive with music, entertainment, community activities and celebrations as people come together for Glossop Pride 2026.
A huge amount of hard work has gone into organising the event by the volunteers at Glossop LGBTQ+, and it’s great to see so many local groups, performers and businesses getting involved.
Wishing everyone involved every success for Glossop’s first Pride - and I hope this becomes a well-loved annual tradition for the town. 🏳️🌈

Disabled people’s voices and lived experiences must be at the heart of any review of Personal Independence Payment (PIP).
Disability Rights UK has launched a new survey as part of the Timms Review - the first ever comprehensive review of PIP - to help gather evidence directly from Disabled people about their experiences of the system.
The findings will help inform the review and support future campaigning work to improve support for Disabled people.
The survey is available in a range of accessible formats including Easy Read, BSL, print and online versions.
If you are a Disabled constituent with experience of PIP, I would encourage you to take part and make your voice heard.
Responses are open until 25 July 2026.
