North Norfolk MP Norman Lamb will visit 55 villages in five days as he embarks on his annual tour of the communities in his patch.

The village surgery tour, which takes place from Tuesday August 27 to Saturday August 31, is designed to give electors the chance to talk to their MP about issues that concern them.

He said: 'My annual village tour serves a fantastically important purpose. Every year I meet people in their own villages, and take up new issues as a result.

'Not everyone finds it easy to get to my regular surgeries that take place in north Norfolk's towns. This is something I look forward to every year – it is an invaluable opportunity to find out what is happening in local communities.'

Anyone who wants to talk to Mr Lamb can turn up at the given time. There is no need to book an appointment, though it would be helpful for people who know they intend to be at any of the locations to let the constituency office know beforehand on 01692 403752.
