Remembrance runs deep
From the quiet dignity of the services at our military cemeteries to the powerful parades led by veterans, cadets and serving personnel, every Remembrance event I have attended this year reminds me of the courage, sacrifice and hope of those who served and of the families who stood behind them.

From local conversations to lasting change
My meeting with residents of North Town, and a roundtable with headteachers on support for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), reminded me that change works best when it starts with listening.

A promise made and a promise kept. 💚
Last week we announced that 1,800 military homes in Aldershot will be refurbished as part of this Government’s £9 billion Military Housing Strategy.
Proud to have fought for this for our Armed Forces families here in the Home of the British Army. 🇬🇧

On Armistice Day, I wanted to share this letter from King George VI, which I had the privilege of reading at the Yateley Remembrance Service.
These words ring as true today as they did then - reminding us of the courage, sacrifice, and hope of a generation who gave everything for the freedoms we enjoy.
In the Home of the British Army, we will always remember them. 💚 #lestweforget #wewillrememberthem

This moment, captured by BBC Songs of Praise at Aldershot’s Lighting the Graves, shows what remembrance truly means here in the Home of the British Army.
As we prepare to fall silent, we remember all who served, and the families who still bear that sacrifice. 💚 #WeWillRememberThem

Great to welcome Luke Pollard to QinetiQ HQ – a business made in Farnborough and driving innovation for our Armed Forces.
As your local MP, I’ll keep working with QinetiQ to help this brilliant company grow, create skilled local jobs, and inspire the next generation of engineers here in the Home of the British Army. 💚

This weekend I attended six Remembrance events across our constituency, including a wonderful service in #Yateley bringing together residents and community groups from #Frogmore and #DarbyGreen. It was a privilege to stand alongside D-Day veteran Dennis Thatcher and give a reading from King George VI’s letter to the children of the Second World War in 1946. #LestWeForget
Thank you to Yateley Town Council and all the local organisations who made this possible.

I’m so happy that Lighting the Graves is being now being shared with the whole country on BBC Songs of Praise. It’s a story that reflects how much our town has sacrificed over generations, but also says something about our community today. Keith Bean, Dave Betts and so many volunteers should be so proud of how they have brought us together. It was great to stand with you tonight at the going down of the sun. #WeWillRememberThem

Today our community fell silent in honour of those who have served and sacrificed for the freedoms we enjoy on #RemembranceSunday. It always makes me feel proud to see such a wonderful turnout in the Home of the British Army, with people of all ages and backgrounds coming together at the Aldershot Cenotaph and the Royal Garrison Church. Thank you to everyone from Aldershot Garrison, Rushmoor Borough Council and the wider team who made these moving events possible. #wewillrememberthem

It was a privilege to attend the Remembrance Weekend fixture at Aldershot Town Football Club vs Forest Green. It is always a special moment to lay a wreath on behalf of our community and hear the East Bank fall silent in tribute to The Fallen. ❤️💙
