About Gill
Being the Member of Parliament for the area I was born in is the biggest privilege and one that I do not take lightly. If I can do anything to help you, please get in touch. Gill Furniss MP
I am immensely proud to have represented my home of Sheffield Brightside and Hillsborough as your MP since 2016.
I was born and raised in Sheffield, my dad was a steelworker in the area. I started work at the age of 16 as a library assistant here in the constituency. I was an elected Councillor for 16 years, most recently representing Southey Ward. As a Cabinet Member on Sheffield City Council for 3 years in the areas of planning, regeneration, libraries, parks and waste management I was able to broaden my local knowledge. As a lifelong union member and shop steward I am proud to champion the rights of workers.
In Parliament, I provide a strong voice for our local area and ensure that the challenges we face are on the political agenda.
Your comments and suggestions are hugely valuable to myself and my team. Please do get in touch if I can be of any assistance.
