Speaking at Labour Conference in Brighton, Mr Lavery said;

“I’ve always been proud to support the U.K. Guide Dog’s campaign and have been working to ensure that accessibility in Wansbeck constituency is improved.

For those residents living with any sort of Disability, accessing local services, shops or even public transport can be a huge challenge.

We all have a responsibility to make our communities as accessible as possible, that’s why I’m supporting Guide Dogs’ ‘Safer Streets’ campaign. To learn more visit; www.guidedogs.org.uk”
