The Charity she runs with her husband, The Murray Parish Trust, has been given a huge boost this year with George Osbourne granting £2m in the spring budget to be matched by them for the build of a brand new paediatric A&E for Southampton. It will service 11 counties and help thousands of children across the south of England.
