Fareham was a constituency in Hampshire[n 1] represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament. From 2015 to 2024, it had been represented by Suella Braverman of the Conservative Party.[n 2]

Following the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the constituency was abolished at the 2024 general election: the majority, comprising Fareham and Portchester, was incorporated into the new constituency of Fareham and Waterlooville, with the remainder, comprising the villages of Locks Heath, Park Gate, Sarisbury, Titchfield and Warsash, forming part of the newly created constituency of Hamble Valley.[2]
