Earlier this week, the Strangers’ Bar in the House of Commons began serving Thames Side Brewery’s White Swan Pale Ale. Andrew Hayward, the head brewer and owner of Thames Side Brewery, joined Kwasi in Parliament on Thursday to enjoy a pint of his renowned ale.
On 25th November, Kwasi visited Shepperton Marina to celebrate their recent win of The Yacht Harbour Association’s Inland Marina of the Year Award. Shepperton Marina is a local community asset that provides over 400 moorings and houses 15 businesses ranging from charities to logistics.
For many people, gambling is an enjoyable pastime, and a healthy gambling industry makes an important contribution to the economy. However, for some people, gambling can become a serious problem and it is essential that we protect those who gamble from harm.
Kwasi very much enjoyed attending the official opening ceremony for the new Nisa Local at 89 Church Road in Ashford. Kwasi is always happy to support local businesses and hardworking entrepreneurs in the borough.
In early October, Kwasi met with representatives of major local businesses from a range of sectors, including Ametek Aerospace & Defense, Dnata, Cardinal Logistics, FT Technologies, McDonalds, Pinewood Studios, Synter Jaguar Land Rover, Thames Club and several others.
On 7th October, Kwasi was pleased to be able to visit a number of businesses on Shepperton High Street. He was delighted to see some of the varied and flourishing local businesses, including Jamz Café and Bakery, James of Shepperton Butchers, Palmer's Dog Grooming and EM2 tanning.
