MP praises Peterborough charity delivering food parcels to city residents during coronavirus pandemic

Paul Bristow visited Family Voice Peterborough which works to improve services for children and young people with disabilities or additional needs.

The charity, which is based at the Goldhay community centre in Paynels, has been supporting parent-carers throughout the crisis by delivering food and offering advice.

Speaking about his visit, Mr Bristow tweeted: “I recently paid a visit to @familyvoice1 #Peterborough who work so hard for our City. They were delivering food parcels so I lent a hand dropping off in #Bretton and #Dogsthorpe. They make me #proudofpeterborough.

Family Voice Peterborough chief executive Louise Ravenscroft said: “We really appreciate Paul’s support. It was good of him to listen to us explain about issues affecting families and we look forward to raising issues more often.”
