BURY North MP David Chaytor hosted a visit to the House of Commons by partners and patrons of the town's Business Environment Association (BEA).

The visitors were given a guided tour by Mr Chaytor during the event, which was arranged to coincide with a Parliamentary question time session related to environmental issues.

Later, the Bury delegation had tea on the House Commons terrace with the MP.

Among those in the delegation were BEA manager Mike Kinsela, colleagues Catherine Jacques and Emma Critchley; Bury Council economic development officer David Fowler and chairman of Bury Environmental Forum Geoff Higgenbottom.
