Visiting Parliament
Tours
I am happy to help arrange for a tour and apply for special permits on your behalf. However, there are a few restrictions on tours of the Palace of Westminster. Tours take place every Monday and begin at 10:30am, lasting approximately one hour. On Fridays tours take place in the morning if the house is not sitting or late afternoon if the house is sitting. One permit and one guide is required for every twenty people.
The Central Tours Office issue a certain number of special permits available each day. Once all the permits have been allocated no more will be issued. As you can imagine, it can be quite difficult to fit everyone in for a tour on their chosen date. I will try my best but it would be helpful if you had some alternative dates just in case I am unable to obtain a permit on the day you wish to attend.
If you would like me to arrange a tour on your behalf please

with possible dates.
Strangers' Gallery Tickets
I am glad to help obtain tickets for the Strangers' Gallery of the House of Commons for constituents. Each Member of Parliament is allocated two tickets, about once a fortnight. As you may know, Strangers' Gallery Tickets for Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesdays are very difficult to get hold of. I will do my best to arrange tickets for Prime Minister's Questions, but it helps if constituents can provide a choice of dates, as far in advance as possible.
If you are interested in obtaining tickets for the Strangers' Gallery, please

with your preferred dates.
