Shaun Davies, Member of Parliament for Telford, held his first surgery event on Friday 27 September in Oakengates where residents were invited to share their concerns and discuss issues affecting them.

This surgery event provided a space for residents to engage face-to-face with their new MP, encouraging open discussions and collaboration on key community matters.

Residents shared ideas and the details of the things that matter most to them. Topics ranged from health services, opportunities for local graduates, preventing food waste and business subsidies. Following the surgery event, Shaun will provide follow ups to residents on the issues they raised with him.

Shaun commented: “Firstly, I‘d like to thank those who took the time to attend today. The session was a wonderful opportunity to meet residents in this environment for the first time since I was elected back in July. Getting out and about around Telford is and always will be my favourite thing to do. I want to stay connected with the people I serve, and I truly value and understand the role that events like these have in the community.”

In October Shaun will launch the first event in a series of local coffee mornings and afternoons which will be held in collaboration with local partners such as Telford & Wrekin Council, West Mercia Police, health, and other public organisations. These events will offer Telford residents another opportunity to connect directly with the public services that support their community; all in one convenient location.

Further details on Shaun’s next event in Madeley in October will be announced soon. This will be a drop-in session and residents will not need to book in advance.

The next surgery session (appointment based) will take place in November 2024.
