Lee Barron MP joins our Parliamentary Champions network

We're delighted to announce Lee Barron MP as our newest Parliamentary Champion!

Speaking on the announcement, Lee said:

"As the Member of Parliament for Corby and East Northamptonshire, I have heard directly from my constituents about the huge impact ME has on their daily lives.

I am proud to become a Parliamentary Champion for Action for ME and to help create understanding, raise awareness, and build momentum in Parliament."

We would like to thank Lee for his dedication to supporting people with ME and we look forward to working with him.

What does a Parliamentary Champion do?

Our network of Parliamentary Champions are our 'go-to' individuals when engaging with Government and building support for our campaigns more broadly in Parliament and beyond.

They help us in a number of ways, including:

• tabling written and oral questions on ME
• tabling and supporting debates on ME
• sponsoring events in Parliament.
• writing opinion pieces for national and local press.
