About me

I’m Oliver Ryan, and it’s an honour of my life to serve as the Member of Parliament for Burnley, Padiham and Brierfield. Representing our community in Parliament is a responsibility I take to heart, and I’m committed to working tirelessly to ensure your voices are heard and your priorities are addressed.
Since my election in July 2024, I have focused on delivering real results for our community. Whether it is advocating for better houses with good insulation, bringing Ministers to visit different facilities in our area, better schools, stronger healthcare services, job opportunities, or environmental protections… I am passionate about making a positive impact both here at home and across the country.
Outside of Parliament, staying connected with our community is incredibly important to me. I hold regular surgeries, and I have a fantastic team helping me provide the best to every one of you, and I am always keen to hear your thoughts, concerns, and ideas. You will also find me at local events, supporting our businesses, or simply enjoying everything that makes our area so unique.
As your MP, my mission is to build a future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive—where no one is left behind, and where we work together to create a better tomorrow for all.
I know we may not always agree on every issue, but I believe that open and honest dialogue is essential for progress. I am here to represent everyone in our community, and I encourage you to get in touch – whether it is to share your concerns, voice your ideas, or seek support. Your views matter, and they help shape the work I do for our constituency.
