Today I set off on a 20 day trip to Northern India, trekking on the Stok Kangri circuit and also helping on a community project along with 30 Suffolk teenagers.
It will be a a great challenge for them and I will also hope to come back refreshed and ready for a new football season and more importantly a busy 10 months as we campaign hard to make sure a Labour MP is elected for Ipswich.
Whilst I am away, Sandra Gage and Tracy Grant will still be working hard in Rushmere as we look to improve road safety throughout the ward.
See you all in August
