Campaign warning of the absolute danger of using a mobile phone when driving
Road safety is an important issue for me and for people across West Yorkshire and I support the National
Police Chiefs Council campaign that raises awareness about the absolute danger of using a mobile phone
whilst driving. I have spoken to police officers who have witnessed first-hand the unimaginable consequences
that driving whilst on the phone can have and I am determined to work with partners to find local solutions to
local problems to help make our roads safer.

Womens Health Matters - I visited Womens Health Matters in Leeds who I helped
Coming up
to fund with a 2000 grant from the first round of my Safer Communities Fund. The
organisation is an independent charity run by women for women and works to support
asylum seekers from over 20 countries or origin aged 18-70. The grant from the fund
was used for a series of summer activities, open to all women and girls they work with.
The range of activities undertaken enabled women to feel more confident and at home
in their city. It was great to meet the people involved in the project who were
exceptionally welcoming and I could see the difference we had made in the community
by providing an invaluable service to potentially vulnerable women. While there I also
helped give out clothes and talked to service users about their varied backgrounds
which had a lasting effect on me. To find out more about Womens Health Matters visit
