Tonight, I am starting the first in another series of open town hall meetings across the constituency, so I can hear directly from residents about their local and national priorities. I will kick off the first one in Walton.

The meetings will start at 7.30pm, and last up to 2 hours, at the following locations:-

* Thursday 3 March - Walton Oak School, Ambleside Avenue, Walton-On-Thames, KT12 2PB
* Thursday 10 March -St Mary's Junior School, Sugden Rd, Long Ditton, KT7 0AD
* Thursday 17 March - Holy Trinity Church Hall, Church Rd, Claygate, KT10 0JP
* Thursday 7 April - Hersham Youth Club, Arch Road, Hersham, KT12 4QT
* Tuesday 12 April - St. Peters Church Hall, 518 Walton Road, West Molesey, KT8 2QF

I hope to see as many people as possible.
