Lunch with Patrick Spencer MP

Patrick Spencer is the Member of Parliament for Central Suffolk and North Ipswich and Patrick lives in Suffolk with his wife Anna and two sons. 

Since being elected in July 2024, Patrick has been working hard to deliver more funding and better infrastructure for our local NHS services, supporting both our Police and Crime Commissioner and Suffolk Constabulary by fighting for fairer funding to tackle crime and anti-social behaviour, and arguing for a fairer funding deal for schools in Suffolk so that our young people get the very best start in life possible.  Patrick is a strong advocate of businesses across the constituency, large and small, recognising the huge role they play in creating jobs and economic opportunity here in Suffolk.  Patrick was especially proud to recently announce the winners of his inaugural Central Suffolk and North Ipswich Business Awards.

Outside of politics Patrick is a Senior Fellow at the Centre for Social Justice, a Trustee of the Jobs Foundation and a Governor of his local Primary School. Before that he was a Senior Adviser at the Department for Education and a Director at a family-run Private Equity and Venture Capital firm in London.
