Letter: Petition set up for West Park

I think it is a crying shame that West Park Hospital has been Ear marked for closure. The building has a massive history and has helped thousands if not millions since it opened as a women’s hospital many years ago and then being changed into a rehab hospital. Royal Wolverhampton NHS has said that it may move services elsewhere, but I put it to them that they update the site and make it better.

If they close West Park Hospital there is no guarantee where the services will go and patients and families may have to travel to get their much needed rehab and struggle to visit their loved ones and with it being so close to a wonderful peaceful park in which patients are taken around which helps towards their rehab is a massive shame.

I have set up a group on social media and also started a petition in which your readers are more than welcome to sign/join:
