STRETFORD and Urmston MP Kate Green is inviting residents to come and chat with her about issues which matter to them as part of her Big Conversation.

The MP's 'Big Conversations' are a series of events she is hosting in February which are open to all who live and work in her constituency.

There will be a mix of question and answer sessions, themed discussions, and a chance for people to tell her their views.

Kate will be talking about everything from care of the elderly to counter extremism, from educational opportunities for young people to air pollution and the environment.

The events will be held on:

February 12, 10 to 11.30am Urmston Library (focused on health and social care and issues for carers).

February 12, 6-8pm, Stretford Public Hall (an event for voluntary sector and community organisations to discuss their work and what’s needed in Trafford).

February 15, 12-2pm, Gorse Hill Studios (an event for young people to share their views).

February 18, 6-8pm, St Mary’s Church Hall, Partington (focusing on issues affecting the community in Partington).

February 19, 4-6pm, St John’s Centre, Old Trafford (focusing on issues affecting the community in Old Trafford).

Kate said, “As your local MP, it’s my job to listen to your concerns and, where I can, answer your questions and raise issues in Parliament on your behalf.

“That’s why I’m hosting a series of Big Conversations to hear from as many residents as possible about what’s affecting people across my constituency.

“The Big Conversations are on a whole range of topics, in a variety of locations, so I look forward to having a chat with as many residents as possible.”
