Gosport MP, Caroline Dinenage, has launched Parliament Week 2020 for the Gosport Constituency across her social media channels.
In previous years, Caroline has hosted tours of Parliament for her constituents and has held debates with local students at schools and colleges. However, this year much of the opportunities are online due to social distancing measures.
In a video posted on her social media channels today (attached), Caroline spoke about the benefits UK Parliament Week brings, as well as praising the fantastic local engagement of local community groups and schools that has been shown in previous years.
Commenting, Caroline said:
‘Every year our fantastic local community groups and schools mark Parliament Week in their own unique way and I’m sure this year will not be any different.
Although things look a little different and more virtual this year, it’s great to hear that there are 1227 events registered in the South East – the highest of any region in the UK!’
