Kingswood Survey

Dear Resident,

As your local MP and as a resident, I want to make sure that I serve you to the best of my ability and that I am campaigning and fighting on issues that matter to you the most – locally and nationally. That is why I have set up the Kingswood Survey.

The Kingswood Survey will allow you to let me know what your concerns are and what you feel are the issues we need to tackle locally.

Please take a few moments to fill out the survey and if you have any other issues please let me know by emailing me at chris.skidmore.mp@parliament.uk or book an appointment to see me at a local surgery by calling 0117 9736812.

Thank you for filling out the survey.

Regards,

Chris Skidmore MP
Kingswood and Bitton resident.
