Hospital campaign
We’ve had enough of the excuses, enough of weasel words from the health trust and enough of the delays.
We’ve been promised a 20 bed facility that would have treatment rooms offering chiropody, speech and language therapy and physiotherapy, as well as rehabilitation services and x-rays and we want it built NOW.

Building work should have started six years ago when the old hospital was demolished.
Instead, we’ve got a boarded up and overgrown site that hasn’t been touched since the last remaining bits of rubble from our old hospital was cleared.
It’s a scar on our town and a constant reminder of the disappointments, broken promises and delays we have been forced to endure.
This campaign has never been about politics.
