As the MP for Merthyr Tydfil and Aberdare, I’ve been able to welcome pupils from schools from across our area to Parliament, on visits organised through the Parliamentary Education Service.

They offer a variety of types of visits for pupils, such as a tour and a workshop or a tour and a film, and also offer a 50% transport subsidy to help with schools’ travel costs to and from London; I also make a personal contribution to the cost.

How to visit

Visits are in term time, and applications for each term close around three months before the start of the term, although short notice bookings are also available. To book a visit or to find out more, call: 0207 219 4496 or email: engage@parliament.uk.
