Sir Oliver Heald arranged for constituent Emma Anderson and her mother Mirka to present her book "I Emma" to the All Party Group for Downs led by Sir Liam Fox MP. The APPG was instrumental in bringing forward the Down Syndrome Act 2022.
Sir Oliver pressed for mainstream schooling for Emma, when he met her mother 30 years ago. Emma is now 40 years old.
