MP LAUNCHES SUPERMARKET SURGERY

8.42.00am GMT Sat 13th Dec 2008

Sutton and Cheam MP, Paul Burstow, has launched a new programme of advice surgeries to reach more of his constituents. The MP already holds surgeries in local libraries in Worcester Park, Cheam and Sutton. On Friday (12th December) Mr Burstow was on duty at Tesco on the Sutton by-pass.

The supermarket surgeries are part of Mr Burstow's efforts to make himself as accessible as possible for local residents. He plans to hold surgeries at all the local supermarkets and has been encouraged by the positive responses he has received so far.

Commenting Paul Burstow MP said, "Supermarket surgeries are a great way of helping busy residents who have a problem or an issue they want to raise. They won't replace my normal regular surgeries, but they are an additional service to my constituents. Every little helps!"
