In my submission to the Spending Review, I called for more funding to connect people with nature, and I was pleased when the Gov announced £9 million for a Levelling Up Parks Fund. I'm now calling on the council to maximise opportunities by this fund: https://www.stuartanderson.org.uk/news/stuart-anderson-mp-campaigns-better-access-green-spaces-local-residents
It was fantastic to welcome the BHAM 2022 Commonwealth Games to our city yesterday as we hosted the Cycling Time Trial. We had the eyes of the world on Wolverhampton, and it was fantastic to have a spotlight on our city. 🐺 🚴

Ready for an exciting day in West Park #CommonwealthGames2022
I first lobbied for Wolverhampton to be included in #B2022 back in 2020. I’m delighted that today, the Cycling Time Trial will begin and end in West Park. Many people have worked to make BHAM 2022 a great experience, and today our city will be put under a well-deserved spotlight.
This is a brilliant step forward and I congratulate all involved in securing this deal. These monitors will drastically improve the lives of those with type-1 diabetes and relieve pressure on NHS hospitals 👏
