All Party Parliamentary Groups
All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are cross-party, informal groups of Members of Parliament with a common interest. They regularly carry out investigations, prepare reports and lobby Ministers on behalf of their interest sector.
Unfortunately, a consequence of my promotion in September 2023 to become a member of the Government in the Whip's Office was that I have had to resign my membership of all APPGs and Committees. The list below is publicly available, but this includes the various groups and bodies I was an Officer of before my promotion. Please note, I no longer have any active contact with or influence on any of these groups, and can only redirect or signpost anyone who contacts me regarding any of the below.
