I had a great constituency Friday out and about in the Central Suffolk and North Ipswich yesterday, celebrating #EnglishTourismWeek25!

We started the day at the fantastic Framlingham Castle, then going on to visit some businesses in the town. I then visited Easton Farm Park, where it was great to meet Fiona Siddall and to talk about her tourism business in it's 51st year. Crossing the constituency over to a very busy Needham Lakes, we then headed over to Kesgrave to see milsoms Kesgrave Hall and Pete Waters from VisitEngland.
