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, as a consequence of my promotion in November 2024 to become an Opposition Joint Deputy Chief Whip I am unable to be an officer of APPGs. The list below is publicly available, but this includes the various groups and bodies I have been an Officer of.
