Virtual Surgery

Next week Alan Brown MP will be hosting a virtual surgery for his constituents.

Due to the current pandemic, the representative has been unable to hold his regular office, outlying and street surgeries. Although, last month he did dedicate a surgery to businesses within the constituency.

Since the outbreak of Covid-19 Mr Brown and his staff have been working from home and continuing to take on constituent casework. This surgery will enable constituents to speak to the MP and raise matters with him directly. 

The virtual surgery will take place on Friday (29th May) at 10am – 12pm and be made up of eight 15-minute time slots for those who need assistance. Constituents can speak with Mr Brown over the phone or via a video call using either Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

Commenting, the MP for Kilmarnock and Loudoun said: “I am looking forward to having my first surgery since the beginning of March – although I did have a surgery specifically for businesses since the outbreak of the virus.

“Despite not having any surgeries, my office has taken on plenty of new cases with so many people contacting us for support and assistance due to Covid-19. Since it’s outbreak, my office has been dealing with more than 1,000 new cases as well as working on previous casework.

“This surgery allows constituents to speak to me directly with any matters they may need assistance with and as always, I will do everything in my power to help.

“Again, I have made special arrangements and had many conversations with constituents over the phone during this time, but this surgery enables me to be even more accessible.

“Constituents can book an appointment by contacting my office on 01563 501412 or by emailing me directly at alan.brown.mp@parliament.uk and detailing your preference of over the phone, Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

“If by the time some constituents get in touch and the surgery is fully booked, there is no need to worry as other arrangements can be made.”
