The 2021 Census told us that 15,957 women living in Wales were Armed Forces veterans. Women make a significant contribution to our Armed Forces, protecting our way of life. March 8th is International Women’s Day, I join @PoppyLegion and pay tribute to their service. #IWD2025
Women have played a huge part in the Armed Forces for over 100 years. Explore our Women at War timeline and discover how their role in the Armed Forces has changed since the first all-women unit was instituted in 1917. ➡️ britishlegion.org.uk/stories…

It was great to return to Buckley St Matthew's Beavers group again this year for UK Parliament Week. The group has been learning about democracy and we held a vote to decide the name of the new leader - the winning name was Aurora. #UKParliamentWeek

One of my @UKParliament Week activities this year was a visit to Ms Caswell's year 3 pupils at Westwood CP School in Buckley. The children had great questions; from shops in Buckley to nature spaces for wildlife, and whether or not I have met the King ✅🫅 #UKParliamentWeek

It was a pleasure to visit @RSPB_BurtonMere recently and see some of the birdlife that includes avocets, egrets, harriers, redshanks and lapwings. Sadly, RSPB officers reported that raptor persecution is still an issue: rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildli…
