Michael Tomlinson MP visited a street scene set up in Parliament last week by the charity Guide Dogs to learn more about the challenges that people with sight loss face when walking the streets.
Michael was honoured to have been invited to several events in the constituency recently. He visited Wimborne Methodist Church which was open during Wimborne Folk Festival. Michael met several of the volunteers, and chatted to the minister over a coffee.
Spring has finally sprung – and we may even be seeing the start of summer! April and May have had some extremes of weather, but I hope you all had the chance to enjoy some sunshine over the early May bank holiday weekend.
Michael was pleased to be able to visit Montecute School. He had a tour of the school, and then enjoyed a cake and a coffee at the school's Happy Zone café.
The café is run by students, and raises funds for the school. It is open in term time.
As I write this month’s column, the clocks have recently changed and spring finally seems to be upon us. I know that my children are enjoying the longer lighter evenings, taking the opportunity to spend more time on the trampoline in the garden.
