Village Tour Update: 60 in 30 becomes 19 in 7
I'm back out on the Village Tour trail again tomorrow, with surgeries in Oakley, Stevington, Turvey, Riseley, Swineshead, Melchbourne and Yelden. The '60 in 30' Tour is now down to 19 in 7, with 19 villages left in the schedule in the remaining 7 days of the month.

So far 199 people have come out to talk to me about the issues on their minds.
