A & E cut support defies public opinion
There’s only one thing worse than not having the opportunity to voice your opinion. It’s being told your opinion does count, then having it ignored.

The decision by Newark and Sherwood District Council to support the downgrading of Newark Hospital A & E, endorsing the decision to close it completely between midnight and 7am flies in the face of local opinion.

In the space of a few short weeks thousands signed petitions protesting against the moves by NHS Nottinghamshire County to downgrade the A & E department.

Public meetings, held to allow people to express their views, were attended by local residents angry and concerned about what many perceive as yet another step towards full closure of the hospital. And still nothing changes.
— (Dr) IAN CAMPBELL, The Grange, Averham Park.
