Lucy Powell

Labour (Co-op) — Manchester Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 31 October 2024

Debate

Business of the House

Contribution

I join my hon. Friend in congratulating all those who work at the heritage garden in her constituency, and particularly Terry Docherty—it sounds as if he has does an immense job for her constituents. This topic is raised regularly, and now that the Backbench Business Committee is established, I am sure it would consider an application for a debate on the involvement of local community activists and the importance of volunteering to our communities.
