Welcome to my website. It gives useful information of my work as member of parliament for Aberavon, including my biography, details of my latest campaigns in my press releases section, and a description of the constituency.
Please view the contacts page of this site for how best to get in touch.
Thank you for visiting the site, and I hope you find it informative and useful.
I hold regular advice surgeries throughout the constituency. Constituents are required to make a booking for a fifteen minute private appointment with me during which time they can raise a particular concern or problem or lobby me to support a particular cause.
I also hold street surgeries and can arrange for my case-worker, Mr Les Rees, to visit individual constituents who have mobility or transport problems.
For more information about surgeries, or for a personal appointment at the Constituency Office, please contact Les Rees on 01639 897660 Monday to Friday 10.00am to 12.00 noon.
I am keen to meet people, organisations and businesses. For further details contact John Slater, Community Liaison Officer 01639 897660 Monday to Friday 10.00am to 12.00 noon.
BCS The Chartered Institute for IT have announced the winners of the 2010 Web Awards. Dr Hywel Francis MP was shortlisted in the Accessibility category in conjunction with AbilityNet, a registered national charity with over 20 years experience helping disabled people adapt and adjust their information and communications technology.
The Judges looked for sites that successfully engage, excite, provide information and encouraged two-way communication between MPs and their constituents.
Hywel Francis says,
'I welcome any comments on how to improve my website especially to improve access for people with disabilities.'
