Heading into the West of Northumberland today for packed schedule of meetings and events

Starting very early in Whitley Chapel, followed by visits to meet the teachers and pupils at Whitfield and Herdley Bank First schools. Then off to Haltwhistle seeing businesses there before popping in to Haydon Bridge High School to meet teachers and pupils there. I am meeting Tynedale Hospice in the afternoon and then I have a series of surgeries on everything from single farm payment to home ownership and efforts to establish an Acomb to Hexham cycle way.
