I am always incredibly grateful to the many volunteers who work hard in our community in so many different ways. Over the last few years, it has been a privilege to be able to meet so many of these of volunteers, and thank them for their work.

November News

My November news is slightly different this year – Parliament has been dissolved, so I am writing not as an MP but as a candidate in the forthcoming general election.

Michael was invited by several Canford Heath schools to attend a special event in Adastral Square this week. The children from the local schools were campaigning for a community charter. 

Michael was delighted to attend the Chairman of Colehill Parish Council's annual reception, saying thank you to local volunteers who run a wide range pof activities in Colehill.

St Michael's Middle School  band provided excellent entertainment. 

Michael recently wrote to Royal Mail about issues over delays to postal deliveries in Lytchett Matravers. Several residents had raised concerns about getting no post, or delayed post. 

Royal Mail have now responded, confirming that they are aware of the issues, and are addressing them:

Michael Tomlinson was proud to take part in the Remembrance Parade and service in Wareham, as a guest of the Royal British Legion,  to honour the fallen who have served our country. 

Despite the rain, Michael and a few local campaigners had a successful morning in Wareham, chatting to local residents and delivering Michael's latest survey. This gives residents the chance to let Michael know their views. 

Michael was out campaigning in Canford Heath this week, alongside the Conservative Police & Crime Commissioner Candidate Dave Sidwick. Along with several volunteers, they were delivering residents' surveys, so that local people can let Michael know their views. 

Michael Tomlinson is delighted to be standing as the Conservative candidate for the constituency of Mid Dorset and North Poole. If you would like to be involved in the campaign, please email admin@michaeltomlinson.org.uk

Michael has invited the Minister responsible for railways to Wareham to see the issues over the level crossing for himself. This article is from the Daily Echo:
