Helen visits Market Drayton schools for UK Parliament Week

North Shropshire MP Helen Morgan has visited two local schools to chat with teachers and pupils as part of UK Parliament Week.

UK Parliament Week is a programme of events and activities that connects people with Parliament and democracy in the UK. There have been over a dozen local organisations signed-up in North Shropshire, from primary schools to colleges and scout, guide and brownie groups.

The MP visited Market Drayton Infants School and Market Drayton Junior School where she answered questions from the pupils and explained her job standing up for North Shropshire in Parliament.

Helen Morgan, Liberal Democrat MP for North Shropshire said, “I had a great time visiting Market Drayton Infant School and Junior School. It was a real pleasure to meet such fantastic and inquisitive pupils and answer some brilliant questions about Parliament and what it means to be an MP.

“Thank you to the schools for inviting me along and hosting such a great event to help our next generation understand a little more about how our democracy works.
