📢 New Plan for Neighbourhood Health Centres will Transform Local NHS Care in Southampton. I’ve listened to NHS staff and residents across Southampton. Now I’ll work to make sure this plan delivers real results for our city 👇 🔗 darrenpaffey.org.uk/2025/07/03/336/

One year ago, you elected me as your Member of Parliament for Southampton Itchen. It's the honour of my life to be your voice in Parliament. Lots done - but still so much more to do, and I’ll keep working hard every day to support you and help deliver the change you voted for.

Huge thanks to all our emergency service workers who dealt swiftly with this situation and kept neighbours safe. Full respect to local resident and security worker Mr Hingley for supporting too! 👏

22 years ago, one of the first Sure Start centres opened in Southampton, launched by then PM Tony Blair. This Labour Government is bringing them back. I’m working to bring Best Start Family Hubs to Southampton building on the £1.3m already secured to improve local hubs.

I've been to see some of the new affordable housing that is coming to Southampton. 🏗️ VIVID and Hampshire Homes are building 128 new social rent homes in Thornhill. Much more of this to come thanks to the govt's new £billion social and affordable homes programme. 👍

Such a pleasure to spend time with staff and pupils at St Patrick's Catholic Primary School in Woolston recently. It was great to meet their school council and see their new government-funded free breakfast club - one of the first in the country and already a hit!

Really pleased that SouthamptonCC has been invited to join a new government scheme to boost council-led housebuilding. Coming soon after the announcement of its new Social and Affordable Homes Programme, this is another sign of a government getting a grip on the housing crisis.

🚒 Fantastic to meet and listen to firefighters in Southampton last week. Too often their role in supporting our emergency services is overlooked. As we look to reform and strengthen public services, their contribution to prevention and community safety must not be forgotten.

Very proud to be one of the group of cross-party MPs that worked on this important report into children's social care. We heard from young people with direct experience of the system. Their voices are at the heart of the report and its recommendations - as they should be.

Hundreds of constituents have signed my petition to bring one of the government's new Neighbourhood Health Centres to Bitterne. I've now written to the Secretary of State for Health to make the case. Read my letter in full 👇 darrenpaffey.org.uk/2025/07/16/ive…
