 Welcome to my website. I am proud to be the Labour MP for Washington and Sunderland West. I was born and bred in the North East, and I know that local people need a hardworking and authentic voice in Parliament.
My number one priority is to champion the constituency in Parliament and across the wider North East. My role as your MP means that I spend half the week down in London, and half in the constituency. I’m proud of my achievements in Parliament over the past six and a half years, but when I come home I’m even more proud of our constituency.
A vital part of my role is to stay in touch with your opinions, views and priorities. Whether it is safer streets, better transport, creating jobs, affordable housing or climate change, I need to know! Please get in touch with me in writing, by phone or online using the details on my contact page.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Sharon Hodgson
