STEVE GILBERT HITS THE ROAD

Steve Gilbert chats to St Austell resident

Prospective MP Steve Gilbert is set to pick up a tradition first started by David Penhaligon in 1974 of taking a travelling "advice surgery" out to the smaller villages and hamlets across the new St Austell & Newquay constituency.

The Lib Dem candidate will visit over 60 towns, villages and smaller settlements in the last week of September in a 9am to 8pm six-day tour.

Steve said, "Matthew Taylor has been taking his travelling surgery out and about for over 20-years now but because his son Arthur is being treated for cancer he isn't able to do it this year.

"I already do a lot of advice surgeries in Newquay and St Austell and have recently stood in for Matthew Taylor for some that he hasn't been able to make. I know it's not always easy for people to get to our offices, so I'm going to go to them."

    If you are a resident of the St Austell and Newquay constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
