St Oswalds candidate, Glen Harrison (pictured left), has been campaigning with members of Unison following the announcement that Calderstones Hospital is to be closed.
Union representatives have called on Ribble Valley’s MP to meet them and support their campaign to keep it open. They claim they have had no reponse from Nigel Evans despite inviting him to meet them over the Whalley hospital’s three-year run-down to closure, proposed by NHS England.
Meanwhile, the Calderstones unions are hoping for a major response to their online E-petition on the UK Government’s website:
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/116339
The government must respond to the petition once it reaches 10,000 signatures. At 100,000 signatures it will be considered for debate in Parliament.
