Stephen Hammond is MP for Wimbledon

Honoured to have been at Armed Forces Day in Morden to celebrate the dedicated service of our Armed Forces

I am hosting another of my local Climate drop-ins at the Lantern Arts Centre in Raynes Park on the morning of the 23rd of July.

Looking forward to hearing from local residents about what more we can do locally to support Net-Zero, tackle climate change & protect our environment.

This week is #CervicalScreeningAwarenessWeek

Cervical screening (smear tests) can save lives, but 1 in 3 do not attend when invited. @JoTrust have tips, information, and support for anyone with questions or concerns.

Pleased to be quoted in @thetimes on the AELTC's plans for Wimbledon Park.

Everyone in Wimbledon loves tennis but, this application should not pass and I have already contacted the government to request it being called in.

Very pleased to hear that the planning committee tonight has rejected the application to build houses on the LESSA ground. This will please local residents and I’m glad to have been part of the campaign which has stopped this development.
