This Friday, my second annual Bromsgrove Pensioners Advice and Information Fair will be taking place at Parkside (off Market Street), from 10am until 12pm noon.
With over 50 exhibitors from across the constituency confirmed, the Fair will be showcasing the best of Bromsgrove’s services, societies and social clubs. There will be health and fitness advice, volunteering opportunities and a wide variety of educational courses. I would encourage you to come along, make friends and try something new.
Additionally, Vodafone, West Mercia Police and our local Fire and Rescue Service will be giving advice on how to stay safe online and in the community.

As your MP, improving infrastructure and roads across Bromsgrove District has remained a top priority. I’m delighted that our district has been allocated £3.4 million government funding towards improving our infrastructure. Not only will this unlock growth, but it will help to alleviate traffic and boost our local economy.
Finally, I'm pleased that unemployment remains at just 1% in our constituency. That means financial security for hardworking people. As encouraging as this is, there's always still more to do.
It's important for me to hear your comments, thoughts, and feedback, so please don't hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards,
Sajid Javid
Member of Parliament for Bromsgrove
