Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park Destination Group expressed their concerns to me regarding West Dunbartonshire Council's proposed visitor levy. I argued visitor levies should be invested in to local tourism economies, rather than to fill a hole in local councils' budgets.

Take a look at some of what I did last week in Parliament and in West Dunbartonshire as your MP, including debates, meetings and commemorating the 85th anniversary of the Clydebank Blitz📝

🌷I was so pleased to visit Lorraine & the team at Melfort Park Community Garden in Drumry to congratulate them on securing over £28,000 UK Government Pride in Place Impact Funding! This will help make the garden more accessible & inclusive for all the local community to enjoy.

⛪️It was great to visit Liz and Reverend Steven at Dalmuir Barclay Church last week to congratulate them on securing over £23,000 in UK Labour Government Pride in Place Impact Funding! I am so pleased that this funding will help towards making key improvements to the Church.

Many of my West Dunbartonshire constituents have shared with me their experiences of living with EDS, with delayed or overlooked diagnoses leading to unnecessary pain & distress. Earlier diagnoses and increased awareness are needed to improve the lives of those living with EDS.

I am determined to ensure our young people in West Dunbartonshire don’t miss out on the career opportunities from UK Government investment in Defence Technical Excellence College Funding. I will always fight our corner and ensure West College Scotland is included in these plans.
