This Friday 12th September at 7:30pm we have a special “in conversation” event in the ‘gallery’ room of the City Gate pub, Exeter, with Devon MP Steve Darling.
Steve, who represents Torbay, will discuss his eventful first year in Parliament representing the area in which he grew up and where he served for three decades as a local councillor.
Steve is registered blind and has lived experience and an understanding of equality and diversity, particularly around disability. His guide dog Jennie has become famous in the last year as she accompanies him around Parliament!
This is a free event and there is no need to book. Visit this news page for more info.
