North West London NHS - Under the Knife,

Dear All,

              The campaign against the plans to close the Accident and Emergency department at Central Middlesex Hospital with the result of running down the hospital, as well as similar plans for several other hospitals in North West London continues.

 

We will be leafletting and petitioning against the plans in Harlesden (Jubilee clock) and Willesden Green ( Sainsbury’s) tomorrow, Saturday 18th August from 3-5 p.m.

 

Please come along and show your support, and, if you can spare some time, help with the campaign.

 

If you have not already done so, please sign the petition on Brent Council’s website urging the Council to do all it can to prevent the closure of the A & E department at Central Middlesex. The petition is here:http://democracy.brent.gov.uk/mgEPetitionDisplay.aspx?ID=35&RPID=2700845&HPID=2700845

 

The health authorities consultation document is here:http://www.healthiernorthwestlondon.nhs.uk/

Dr John Lister's response, North West London NHS - Under the Knife, is attached.

 

The next Brent meeting of the campaign to Defend the health Service is next Wednesday 22nd August, 7.30 p.m. at the Trades Hall, 375 High Road, NW10 2JR.

 

Please do all you can to encourage others to support this important campaign in any way they can.
