Biography
Peter Lamb has engaged with health and social care through two debate speeches, raising concerns about financial pressures across three key areas: adult social care, learning disabilities and autism (SEND), and palliative care. He highlighted how social care costs have compromised upper-tier authority finances in the context of local government reorganisation, and separately raised concerns about funding cuts affecting St Catherine's hospice in his constituency, calling for government support for palliative care services.

What they’ve said
“Q8. Following years of real-terms cuts to its funding, St Catherine’s hospice, which serves my constituency, has recently made a number of redundancies. Palliative care is hugely important to our communities, and I pay tribute to those who work in it.”
