Mega #Hexham summer tour day ends with street surgery + home visits on #CauseyHill overlooking #Hexham - thread of visits + meets ⬇️ 1/

Good catch up visit to @NorthumbriaNHS #Hexham #Hospital to get updates from many of the teams on the wards and do a walk round with Gillian the Matron #NHS #Proud 2/

Wide ranging update meeting with constituents raising a variety of key local and national #ClimateChange issues - discussion of everything from #ESG to #Coal #Forestry to #LandUse #NetZero to #EnvironmentPlan 3/

Unquestionably the most moving was @wag_company #FriendshipDogs Cassie + Tattie bringing smiles + cheer to the care home residents at #AcombCourt in #Hexham 4/

No question the dogs move the 75 residents, trigger memories and exude empathy - very moving to see their impact 5/

Plenty of other meetings today on everything from bio science innovation businesses to local planning - but off for a recovery 🍺 + big day tomorrow in #Humshaugh #Horsley #Prudhoe + beyond #SummerTour / Ends
