Erewash MP, Jessica Lee, and local Conservative Parliamentary Candidate, Maggie Throup, recently joined The Mayor of Erewash and other fundraisers for an overnight charity sleep out in support of homeless charity, The Canaan Trust.
Maggie has welcomed dramatic new help announced in the Budget for savers across the Midlands, helping those people who want to save for a home, save for their family or save for their retirement.
Maggie was part of the British Cycling volunteer team nominated for a prestigious local sports award at an Awards Ceremony held last night (7th November 2013).
Maggie Throup put her gardening skills to good use when she found out more about the charity 'Thrive'. At the same time Maggie packed a garden starter box to help the charity which supports people recovering from a stroke or heart attack.
Maggie Throup showed her commitment to social action when she signed the 'Social Action Wall; at the Conservative Party Conference. Delegates were asked to graffiti the wall with any voluntary work they carried out.
