I was pleased to be able to once again visit the beautiful Spetchley Park Gardens, with the flowers really starting to bloom. It was insightful to meet many of the team and hear of all the different projects that they are working on, including the planting of 52,000 trees this autumn.
I had a fascinating visit to Blue Print Direct Mail based on the Hampton Lovett Trading Estate in Droitwich. I met Anthony Drew (MD) and his senior team.
The business was formed over 25 years ago and has always been based in Worcestershire.
In his role as the Financial Secretary to the Treasury, Mid Worcestershire MP Nigel Huddleston opened the debate on the Finance (No. 2) Bill which follows the Spring Budget and builds on the National Insurance cuts.

Many constituents will be concerned about the incident at the Pear Tree Inn near Worcester last week.
I understand that the 25-year-old man who was attacked was taken to hospital and is in stable condition, and his injuries are not thought to be life-threatening.
