Latest updates from Daniel

Shrewsbury and Atcham MP Daniel Kawczynski visited a Shropshire social work scheme and found out about the different ways it is providing support to meet people’s needs.

Daniel spent time at People2People in Shrewsbury on Friday 8 February 2013, talking to staff about the exciting project. He also heard from people who are supported by the practice, about how it is helping them to be more active and independent.

Shropshire Council was one of just six councils across England that received funding from the Department of Health to pilot the national social work scheme.

The announcement of the Same Sex Marriage Bill by the Prime Minister has brought to the forefront an issue which, at the very least can be said to have generated a “lively debate” across the nation, in Westminster, and in Shrewsbury. Over the past few weeks, I have received hundreds of letters from those in support or against the bill; all have passionately argued valid points which I have taken into consideration ahead of the vote next week. I am very proud to represent a constituency where individuals actively participate in the political process.

Dear Mr Sikorski

As someone of Polish origin I have always attached a great deal of importance to Anglo-Polish relations. My grandfather who was a great Polish patriot taught me a profound love and respect for Polish history and culture. I remember speaking to him for hours on end during my visits to Warsaw to see him. He taught me the Polish language, and we would write and recite Polish poems together over traditional Polish dishes. Although he passed away over 25 years ago, his passions for Poland are still with me and will always be.
