Impressed by effort made by Theresa May

May I through your publication express my extreme gratitude and thanks to your sitting Member of Parliament Theresa May who helped me and took part in my charity booklet project ‘Challenge 50’, where I travelled the country meeting fifty members.

Initially we were supposed to meet in December 2019, but due to the election that year it was delayed and then the pandemic meant that it was not until now that we could complete this task at her offices in Westminster.

Having then fixed a time, the tragic events of the killing of Sir David Amess took place three days before the appointed time, and I would not have been surprised and expected maybe the meeting would be cancelled as I was not a constituent and was potentially a stranger, but to her credit she and other MPs have stated that they will carry on with their normal surgeries and contact with the public.

I managed to present her with a gift in the form of a mug from Walsall FC too for her office.

Throughout, she showed herself to be a kind, considerate and compassionate person – in spite of my nerves she put me at ease.

I congratulate Maidenhead for having such a conscientious and excellent individual as their representative in Parliament.
