Labour — Wigan

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 November 2026

Debate

Physical Activity: Children and Young People

Contribution

The Government are highly committed to increasing physical activity for young people, which is why we are reforming the PE and school sports partnerships, strengthening links between schools, clubs and local communities, and investing in grassroots facilities. If I may say so, my hon. Friend is an outstanding advocate on this issue and an example of the amazing contribution that people can make throughout their lifetimes through sport. As an umpire for Wimbledon and someone who still plays tennis for her county, she is a shining example of what can be achieved through sport.
