Tristram Hunt
SHADOW education secretary Dr Tristram Hunt will meet a Furness mum who wrote a moving book about how her son lives with autism when he visits Barrrow this morning (Thursday).
Deborah Brownson, a mum-of-two, penned He's Not Naughty - a children's guide to autism to raise awareness of the condition.
She is campaigning to launch the book as a resource in every school in Cumbria, a move which Mr Woodcock supports.
Prior to meeting Deborah, Dr Hunt will tour the BAE shipyard to see where Britain's nuclear submarines are built.
