Richard recently hosted Sunnymede Primary for a visit to the Houses of Parliament.
Speaking after the visit, Richard said:
"It was fantastic to meet Mrs Houghton and students from Sunnymede in Parliament to chat to them about my work as their MP and answer their many questions. Normally, it’s me visiting the students in their school, so it was an absolute pleasure to have them come to me this time!
It would be amazing to have all the schools in Basildon and Billericay visit Parliament at least once, and I’m happy to put any schools in touch with the Education and Engagement team - just drop me a message via www.richardholden.org.uk/contact.
I have plenty more school visits coming up on the ground across Basildon and Billericay and I am on track to visit every one of our local schools. Ensuring all our children have an understanding of politics and importantly access to their local MP."
